Your name:
Noel Hattem, the lead singer.
I also play keys and guitar and wrote most of the songs on our current CD
entitled The Damage You Have Caused.
Where are you from?
NYC. Unique New York you're
not unique. Say that 3x fast!
Name of band:
Starkett Levee.
Who else is in your band?
John “The Graz” Graziano and I
formed the band. He plays guitar, bass and some keys. He also produced the CD.
A guitar he uses was given to him by Joe Satriani and he studied with Mike
Bloomfield.
How would you describe
yourselves and your music?
Alternative rock with potent
and catchy lyrics, backed by a mixture of hard to heavy edged straight-ahead
rock with dark, rhythmic influences and textures.
Who are your main influences
musically?
We were influenced by “Elder
Elf Named Elvis” Can you say that 3 times fast? lol
Span of rock, from classic,
punk, hard, metal and alternative. I have a particular fondness for grunge
still, and a high regard for Chris Cornell.
What do you hope to achieve in
music?
Artistic expression and recognition, and perhaps go from unsigned to
signed. Making money in this current music biz would help too.
What has been the highlight of
your career so far, and why?
Getting nominated for a Grammy
this year.....not!
And what’s the moment you want
to forget?
When I tripped over Jack
Black's foot at the Oscars, also this year.....not.
If you had to pick just one of
your songs to represent your music, what would it be and why?
Well, How Many we have a video
for. But that is a rather unique tune and unique video. Did I mention “Rock Up
The Hill”, “Sum Of Your Love” and Gun Control Out of Control"??
Where can we listen to it?
Where can we find out more
about your music?
Anything else you’d like to
say about your music that I forgot to ask?
We recorded on a Mac Pro in
home studio, good quality for DIY. Rock Up!
