Ludo.
Where are you from?
I'm from the French Alps but I live in Birmingham since a
year so I'm now 30% Brummie.
Name of band:
The New Ages.
Who else is in your band?
Ant, Dan and Ben.
How would you describe
yourselves?
A cool band from Birmingham in love with music who really
like to perform. We are simple people who focus on playing with as much freedom
as we can.
Who are your main influences
musically?
Everybody has their own influences and we've got some in
common. We don't try to copy something or follow a style we just do what we
want. Sometimes it can sound like like Red Hot Chili Peppers, sometimes like
Muse... We are eclectic and care about the groove and the feelings.
What do you hope to achieve
in music?
Become pro and do really good gigs all around the world,
but for now we are very pleased to play all around England in nice little pubs
with such a good atmosphere.
What has been the highlight
of your career so far, and why?
I don't know it is hard to pick one, we have a lot of
very good souvenirs. Our band exists only seven months and we've already done more
than 25 gigs. We did two open mics in the same night, one in Birmigham (The
Yardbird) and then in Sutton Coldfield (The Gate). It is probably our best
performance in Sutton this night, we were in the groove and well together it
was perfect. The Bakers Vaults (Oxjam Festival) in Manchester was a very nice
venue to play with nice people to finish a mini tour in Manchester - this was a
very good day as well.
And what’s the moment you
want to forget?
Nothing honestly and now it is the past. Maybe on the
road to Derby my band mates put a crap French song "ces soirées la"
very loud in the car for more than 10 times! Haha actually it was perfect, I'll
never forget this moment.
If you had to pick just one
of your songs to represent your music, what would it be and why?
The next song that we will create. The next song is
always the most interesting.
Where can we listen to it?
Soon on Soundcloud but for now you can go and listen to Disguise, you will feel better after - www.soundcloud.com/thenewages/disguise
Where can we find out more
about your music?
Everywhere don't hesitate to follow us on Twitter and
Facebook.
Anything else you’d like to
say about your band/music that I forgot to ask?
Support live music and bands like us where having a good
philosophy is very important.
