60 Seconds With… The Glorious North

glorious.jpg

Define your genre in five words or less: Slacker country.


Bearing the terrible clichéd nature of this question, what do you reckon people will say you sound like? Like the unholy trinity of Dinosaur Jnr, Creedence Clearwater Revival and Garth Brooks.

 

What do you love about making music? The very, very occasional feeling you’ve actually produced something worth listening to.

 

What do you hate about the music industry? Its shallow, cliquey idolatry and the fact it is not showered upon us.

 

If you could travel back in time and show one of your musical heroes your stuff, who would it be and why? Hank Williams, so we could get nice and drunk together and I could perhaps convince him not to die so young so we could have more of his music.

 

What can a punter expect from your live show? A little bit of country, a little bit of rock’n’roll and a lot of swagger.


What’ve you got to sell CD-wise? Nothing yet. But we’re recording an EP in December for release early next year.


When’s the gig and with who? Wednesday December 4 at the Grace Darling with the still-hip Ben Birchall and the unassumingly suave D. Rogers.
