Your name:
Lomax (singer).
Where are you from?
Name of band:
Exile Parade.
Who else is in your band?
Dave, Phil, Mutchy and
Chris.
How would you describe yourselves?
Magnificently handsome,
I’d say typically northern lads who write untypically northern music.
When we get it right no one’s better live.
Who are your main influences musically?
We’ve been going a while
now so our main influences in music right now are polar opposite in a lot of
ways to two years ago for example but they all tie in. It’s like a
fucking huge mural you build in your head. Grinder Man are big in our
conscience right now, the Fall, in particular their tune Blindness, we became
instantly obsessed with it while driving round Holland in the van, it’s like
our mantra for how everything should sound, like it’s been dug up. The Kills, Horrors,
Dylan, My Bloody Valentine are what drives the others when they write these
days. Richard Ashcroft, Mick Jagger, Sam Cooke, Ian Brown, Kurt Cobain and Liam
Gallagher made me a frontman.
What do you hope to achieve in music?
Good question that, I hope
to look back on a life and feel like I’ve left something worthwhile behind. Short
term I know me and the others want nothing more than to record, whatever
happens that’s all we care about right now is getting it all out.
What has been the highlight of your career so far,
and why?
It’s when Owen Morris came
to see us with Bonehead in de bees Winsford, Oasis undoubtedly changed my life
when I was a young teenager; I completely believed it was possible to get
somewhere in life by joining a band, when we were sorting out recording dates
after the gig it was proof I was right and its fucking insane that we spent
those weeks with him making our records.
And what’s the moment you want to forget?
I hope I don’t forget any
of them.
If you could choose one of your songs as an advert
for your music, what would it be and why?
I’d choose ‘Alcohol’ it’s
a simple tale of truths, sounds class.
Where can we listen to it?
Where can we find out more
about your music?
