So then, what’s the band name and what do you do in the band? West Thebarton and I’m one of four guitarists.

What do you reckon people will say you sound like? Seven, often drunks mates (Josh Healey from Chardonnay), play guitars and other instruments.

What do you love about making music? Having a really good excuse to hang out with/travel people you love being with.

What do you hate about the music industry? It makes it incredibly hard to make a seven piece band financially viable.

If you could travel back in time and show one of your musical heroes your stuff, who would it be and why? He’s still kicking around, but Ty Segall. Because listening to his music was what started this band.

If you could assassinate one person or band from popular music, who would it and why? Sam Kolesnik from Horror My Friend, because.

What can a punter expect from your live show? Just us trying to have fun and hoping that some of that will translate to them.

What’ve you got to sell CD-wise? I don’t believe we’ve ever had a CD, but we have records (and digital).
