Nat Jack.
Where are you
from?
Vancouver,
Canada.
Name of band:
Lucid AfterLife.
Who else is in
your band?
Thom Turner on
guitar, Miles Morrison on bass and Matt Shearlaw on drums.
How would you
describe yourselves?
Describing Lucid
AfterLife to someone who has not been to see our live show is like describing a five-tab LSD trip to someone using only a stick. We give everything we have in
every note. I am half-athlete, half-musician out there.
Who are your
main influences musically?
Each member of
the band has his own influences and bring them to the table, the styles are all
over the place. Lately I have been listening to a lot of Bowie, Porcupine Tree
and the The Mars Volta but I would say I played Monster Magnet on repeat when I
was a young buck so you’re going to hear a bit of them in some songs
What do you hope
to achieve in music?
I really don’t
think there is more that I need to achieve, music is here and I can make it and
hear it quite well, so I am grateful for that. The business side of things can
be a real bore for me but I know it’s just part of being passionate about
delivering my message on a wider platform.
What has been
the highlight of your career so far, and why?
Just getting to
know my band mates on the road, jamming with them and making tunes. I am really
just a mad man with a mic so being surrounded by the guys who bring real talent
to the band allows me to explore deeper as a song writer, there is nothing like
a spontaneous jam live on stage.
And what’s the
moment you want to forget?
Forgive but
don’t forget amigo.
If you had to
pick just one of your songs to represent your music, what would it be and why?
On the upcoming
EP we have a song called “In All That I see” I would say if I had to just
pick one it would be her. The song paints an atmosphere that is perfect for the
story that transpires. Lucid AfterLife is not about one style or genre it’s
about enveloping a story with the certain vibe that allows you to become
enthralled in the song .
Where can we
listen to it?
The song is not
released just yet but there is a pre-sale link to the album at bandcamp.com (see
below). The best way to hear it first is to sign up for our mailing list
at lucidafterlife.ca
Where can we
find out more about your music?
Or just email me
directly at info@lucidafterlife.ca and we can chat riffs
Anything else
you’d like to say about your band/music that I forgot to ask?
I would like to
thank you guys for taking the time to interview us and want to thank all the
loyal Lucid fans who have been following and supporting through the years. I
hope you guys enjoy our new EP “Occult Mafia Mistress” and we look forward to
seeing you in your city.
