Define your genre in five words or less:
Folk, rock, electronica, pop, experimental.
Bearing the terrible clichéd nature of this question, what do you reckon people will say you sound like?
Björk, Sarah Blasko, Massive Attack.
What do you love about making music?
Making our own self-contained worlds filled with our innermost thoughts and expressions.
What can a punter expect from your live show?
One writer described our live show as “offering you candy and then pushing you in the dirt”. It’s a pretty dynamic show that takes you to a lot of different places – there are times of pure pop elation and times when we descend into noise.
What’ve you got to sell CD-wise?
We released our debut EP A Suitcase Full Of Hope And A Safety Mat just over a year ago, which is available for purchase through our website paperhousemusic.com, or through iTunes and CD Baby. We are currently working on a full-length album, the first single of which will be launched on Wednesday October 10.
When’s the gig and with who?
We have our single launch coming up at The Toff In Town on Wednesday October 10. We will be playing with two amazing bands – Second Hand Heart and Canary, and we will be giving away a copy of our new single to everyone who comes on the night!
When, and why did you start writing music?
I grew up with some pretty serious musical brainwashing from my parents, so I think that was the reason I began writing and playing music from the age of seven. The first song I wrote was actually about a poisonous blue ringed octopus which I was almost stung by during a trip to the beach. It must have made an impact on me because I’ve been writing and playing music ever since.
