1. What’s been the highlight so far?

1. So far with the band we have had a lot of ups and successes which we are very proud of and have had some wonderful experiences that we will remember for the rest of our lives. We feel there is still room for improvement, there are many goals that we still have to reach and lots of hard work to do!!

2. What inspires the band when writing music?

2. Lyrically the people around us and their interesting stories and our own experiences. Musically we are inspired by each other in the rehearsal room, it just takes a little riff or line to get a whole song rolling, but theres nothing like seeing a band live and them blowing your mind to get the creative fire burning!

3. What is the new song about?
3. Our single “When you wake Up” was written when we were rehearsing in a place surrounded by very lovely but ‘spirited’ nightlife people. It inspired the idea of a incredible night in the city with someone and you wake up in the morning the almost giddy rush of new love and wanting to take that chance with someone and making it more than just that crazy night.

4. Do you have any plans to go tour overseas?

4. Well thats on our list of goals to do more and more and more of but we did kind of jump in the deep end first up and toured in London off the back of winning the Emergenza Australia festival a couple years ago. It was unbelievable gigging in London, no car, barely any gear, trying to find your way around that massive city! We played in an awesome little punk venue with a shitty PA and paint coming off the walls but was such a pumping little place! The stress of getting gear and accommodation is kind of forgotten in hindsight! Definitely looking forward to getting into more peoples ears around Oz!

5. How does regional touring help you as a band?

5. We just want to get to our music out there! We’d like to play anywhere where people would want to come and see some good music. Its imperative that people in regional areas get the same oppurtunity to see live music as in the cities.

6. What has been the favorite show to date?

6. Well playing the big stage at the Taubertal Open Air Festival in the Black Forest of Germany with a massive 13th century castle in front of you is gonna be pretty hard to beat! It was a big stage in front of heaps of people with massive sound followed by a million beers with other bands from all over the world! Heaven!

7. How important is social media to you as a band?

7. Social media is essential as it gives you direct contact with fans and potential fans, is a great advertising platform and gives you the ability to communicate with people from all over the world. Its an incredibly powerful tool that musicians have never had before, the hard bit is trying to stand out in the crowd!

8. What does mean to connect with your fans?

8. These days there is so much that people are swamped with its crucial to have a personal connection with your fans. It lets people access behind the glass and gets them emotionally involved what you do. If fans don’t feel something from you then they won’t ‘invest’ in you. We hope to meet personally with people at our gigs and on tour and get em as pumped as we are.

9. If you could have any body in a video clip who would it be?

9. Brad Pitt. He’s hot.

10. What your favorite venue to play at?

10. Our fav venues at the moment are the Evelyn, Espy Front Bar, Northcote Social Club, just cos we’ve had great gigs with lots of people there! If you can connect with people at shows then that makes a great gig.

11. What does 2014 have in store for the band?
11. Touring and releasing our album. We’ve been working on this album all cooped up for waaaaay too long and wanna get out, see some peeps and blast music into their earholes! Make millions of dollars and wear matching all white outfits like N Sync circa 2001, see picture.
