So then, what’s the band name and what do you ‘do’ in the band?
Uncle Rudey, and I (James) play bass and sing. My bro Davo sings half the songs and plays guitar, Chicken’s on lead guitar and Joey’s on the drums.
What do you reckon people will say you sound like?
Aussie pub rock with a blues tinge.
What do you love about making music?
The best thing we love is when a new hook is created and the energy it gives.
What do you hate about the music industry?
We hate all the shiny manufactured pop.
If you could travel back in time and show one of your musical heroes your stuff, who would it be and why?
If we could go back in time we would show Jimi Hendrix our stuff because he was the coolest man to ever walk the earth.
If you could assassinate one person or band from popular music, who would it and why?
If we could assassinate one person from popular music it would be Chris Martin. His whiney vocal and cheesy lyrics are very lame.
What can a punter expect from your live show?
A punter can expect a high energy and fun show. Love playing live.
What’ve you got to sell CD-wise?
We have our Amsterdam Shuffle EP to sell.
Anything else to add?
Beer is good. Music is good. Get involved.
UNCLE RUDEY will launch their EP at the Brunswick Hotel on Friday August 21 alongside Deadly Are The Naked, Battlesick, Ziah Ziam, and Channel Beero.
