Tell us the story of MDRN LOVE? The band started formally as Revolution in 2014. We launched a self-titled EP, playing around Geelong over the course of two years. We played Queenscliff Music Festival twice and took out the emerging artist award for best rock artist in 2014. In 2015, we placed third in the national final of the Emergenza global battle of the bands competition after taking out the Victorian final.
What was the reason for the name change? The name change was a fresh start, so that we could clear the deck and reinvent ourselves.
What’s your style? Like trying on a new pair of slippers.
Tell us about your single Bring Me Down? Although written in your stereotypical boy-meets-girl relationship scenario, the song was written over the concept of being around someone or something that you know you shouldn’t, and knowing that this negative entity is changing you for the worse and bringing you down.
Plans for the EP? We hope the EP speaks for itself, and let’s people know we mean business. We are hoping to tour the east coast off the back of the EP, and push ourselves into some handy festival lineups and supports for bigger acts. For us it’s the end of a long hiatus but the beginning of a journey we can’t wait to start. It’s the band’s first tour under the new name, but it’s only a sneak peek of things to come.
