Bearing the terrible clichéd nature of this question, what do you reckon people will say you sound like?
It’s a mixture of blues and soul music. We also have a Southern country vibe in some songs as well.
What’ve you got to sell CD-wise?
We have our brand spanking new EP coming out called Shake It Up.
How long have you been gigging and writing?
As a band we only began gigging in March last year but for about six or seven months before that me and Jason (the guitarist) began writing heaps of songs together.
Which band would you most like to have a battle/showdown with?
I don’t know about battle but we would definitely love to do a show with Clairy Browne and her Bangin’ Rackettes. Some of my closest friends are in that band so it would be a great honour to support them someday.
Do you have a pre-gig ritual? If so, what is it?
It’s a pretty daggy ritual but I like to listen to Kenny Loggins – Danger Zone before getting ready for a gig. It’s a guilty pleasure that just gets me amped up to sing and perform. Please don’t judge me too harshly.
What do you think a band has to do these days to succeed?
A friend told me I’m not famous because nobody knows who I am and I suck. So I guess the most important thing is to have people know who you are and to not suck at what you’re doing.
Where would you like to be in five years?
Hopefully with an album out, playing festivals, writing music and connecting with people.
When’s the gig and with who?
Our EP launch is on Friday June 14 at Ding Dong Lounge. We have the amazing Lamarama & Soul Safari as supports for the night.
