60 Seconds With…Pretty City

So then, what’s the band name and what do you ‘do’ in the band?

My name’s Drew and I’m the drummer in Pretty City.

What do you reckon people will say you sound like?

I reckon we sound like a cross between the Dandy Warhols and the Smashing Pumpkins.

What do you love about making music?

I love playing with other people and making music where there was none before. Transforming noise into something that people can listen to and be moved by is pretty special.

What do you hate about the music industry?

You know what, I actually love the music industry. The vast majority of it, and the people in it are dead set legends. I would love the opportunity to be in it more and make more music.

If you could assassinate one person or band from popular music, who would it and why?

I’m going to cop a lot of hate here, but I’d have to say Angus Young. I absolute love AC/DC, but with the demise of Brian Johnson’s hearing, I just feel like they’re going to keep going around the mediocre-go-round until they just wheel out a cadaver on stage and ask us to pay $4000 dollars for the privilege.

What can a punter expect from your live show?

Energetic rock’n’roll with cool sounds, lights and heaps of catchy hooks to dance to.

What’ve you got to sell CD-wise?

We’ll be selling our debut LP, Colorize. We’ve got heaps of merch too, including T-shirts, and cassettes.
