Carlton Dry Independent Music Charts Album Focus: Kerser

Album title? King

Where did the title of your new album come from? The fans started calling me King Kers via social media and I thought it had a ring to it and made sense. So King was really from the fans.

How many releases do you have now? I have two mixtapes, over 60 promos uploaded to YouTube and have done four albums in four years.

How long did it take to write/record? Depending on each song. Some songs I can smash out in 30 minutes; other songs take ages. It can also depend how I’m feelin’ at the time.

Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? Nothing in particular. Just the usual: music, and what was happening with my life at the time.

What’s your favourite song on it? I can’t name a favourite. My top three keep changin’ but at the moment they’re It’s Nothing, Underground and King.

Will you do anything differently next time? Every album we try to approach the sound differently. So yes. Just not sure what avenue we will take this time.

When and where is your launch/next gig? First one is in Melbourne on 24 Jan which launches the start of a tour around the country.
