Define your genre in five words or less:
Tripped out glorious psych rock.
Bearing the terrible clichéd nature of this question, what do you reckon people will say you sound like?
We get told we sound like early Pink Floyd meets Black Sabbath with a lot of ‘60s freakout and rocking instrumental jams.
Describe the best gig you have ever played.
Any gig where we get to share the stage with a band we totally love is always the best gig we ever played. The upcoming gig with Spencer P Jones at Tago Mago will be epic, that will be our next best gig. We will be jamming with Spencer at the end of the night after we play an extended set.
Tell us about the last song you wrote.
3 Million Light Years was the last song we wrote. It started with an idea I got at about 5am after sitting up all night jamming. I took it to the band and Paul threw in some riffs, Mark dropped some beats and voila, and a new eight-minute instrumental was born.
Where would you like to be in five years?
Gigging with Seedy Jeezus and working on our fifth album. Hopefully jetlagged from travelling overseas with the band.
Do you have a pre-gig ritual? If so, what is it?
I usually restring my guitar while watching random music clips on YouTube. I don’t eat cause I get nervous and puke on stage (not a good look) then look for the cleanest denim shirt from the boot of my car to wear onstage.
What is the next release from Seedy Jeezus?
We have a 7” coming out early August called Shakin’ the Fuse b/w Into the Midnight Sun. Then in late September the full debut self-titled album will be released both here and in Europe.
If your music was a chocolate bar, which one would it be, and why?
It would be a Seedless Cherry Chocolate Jeezus bar with a holographic wrapper and trading cards of pictures of the band in various stages of undress. We like to have all bases covered, body soul and mind all in the one chocolatey package.
SEEDY JEEZUS play alongside Spencer P Jones at Tago Mago on Friday June 13.
