BIGSOUND 2012: Loon Lake

Member/role:
Sime – guitar, backing vocals.

Hometown:
Tarrawingee originally (Country Vic). Now living in the big smoke of Melbourne.

Short description of your band and your music:
We are five blokes, which include three brothers and 'the other two'. We have three guitars, one bass, drums and a singer. The music we play has been described as garage pop a few times. Come and listen and describe it how you want.

What are you hoping to achieve from showcasing at BIGSOUND?
Most importantly we are trying to put on an entertaining and tight show for all that are involved. Personally I want to watch a lot of bands and talk to a lot of people. There are some great bands playing up there this year. In terms of what we are trying to achieve as a band, I'm not too sure, maybe our manager has more in store on that side of things. All we can worry about is playing well, and the rest will follow.

Why should people come and see you from amongst the myriad bands at BIGSOUND?
I guess if you are into Charlie And The Chocolate Factory you might be interested in watching us, as our lead singer bears a striking resemblance to a young Gene Wilder. Has a heap of golden tickets too. Come along, Brissie, we would love to see you there.
