How would you describe yourselves and your music?
We are an young alternative guitar band who's music is built on bluesy fuzz
driven riffs, thundering drums and catchy lyrics.
Who are your main influences musically?
Arctic Monkeys, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, The White Stripes, Rage Against
the Machine, Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
What do you hope to achieve in music?
We would like to see ourselves making a living within the music industry. We
want to be playing the best venues with as big a crowd as possible.
What has been the highlight of your career so far, and
why?
Playing Barfly was special. It is such a prestigious venue and somewhere we
have watched many a great band.
And what’s the moment you want to forget?
To be honest there aren't really any. Being in a band is such a fun experience,
as long as you are playing shows and writing new tunes there isn't anything to
complain about. Maybe a couple of the early tunes can be forgotten. I wont tell
you what they are just in case they are lingering on the internet somewhere.
If you had to pick just one of your songs to represent
your music, what would it be and why?
Our latest single "Jump" represents us really well. It's a slow but
upbeat song with a huge chorus. It's one that the crowds love when we play live
and has had quite a good reception from people in general so far. It's out on
iTunes and Spotify at the moment.
Where can we listen to it?
