Cordcalling Q&A

Your name: 
Denise Conway.

Where are you from? 
London, ON, Canada.

Name of band: 
Cordcalling.

Who else is in your band? 
Brian Conway (my husband).

How would you describe yourselves? 
Art Rock - we are creative with a raw, minimalistic approach.

Who are your main influences musically? 
The White Stripes, Nirvana, Led Zeppelin.

What do you hope to achieve in music? 
We view music as a creative and expressive outlet. Besides the enjoyment that we receive from it, we hope to inspire people to seek after truth, love, and goodness.

What has been the highlight of your career so far, and why? 
We performed at Canadian Music Week in Toronto, which was an honour since the festival is so renown and it included headliners such as Sloan and The Trews.

And what’s the moment you want to forget? 
When we tried to book our first gig, we didn't even have a copy of our music on CD, only on a cassette tape. The booker at the bar didn't have a tape player, so Brian had to drive home to get his walkman (lol). Although it was not the typical way to book a gig, it worked out and the show successful.

If you had to pick just one of your songs to represent your music, what 
would it be and why? 
"Wicked Desires" because it shows how much passion and power we can pack into a fairly simple tune. It is our single that radio stations have played the most. We also have an official video for it, which may be viewed on our Youtube page.

Where can we listen to it?



Where can we find out more about your music?

Anything else you’d like to say about your band/music that I forgot to ask?

We are currently working on new songs for an analog recording, which will eventually be pressed onto a vinyl record. We plan to tour with our upcoming album in select cities in Ontario and venues in London, UK.
