With an Australia tour just announced around their Bluesfest 2015 appearance (all dates down the bottom) and their brand new album Mariachi El Bronx (III) due for release on Friday 7 November, Ken Horne from the group decided to fill us in on all the good parts about being in two bands at the same time. If there's any bad points, we don't know them, but we do know the following, which you can check out after streaming their new single, Wildfires. TOP 5 THINGS ABOUT BEING IN TWO BANDS AT ONCE 1) It's fun to switch up totally different styles of music.
