The Wednesday Experiment reckon their album felt like it took "approximately 10 million billion trillion gazillion years" to write and record.

Answered by: Peter O’Leary

Album title? The Verse Of You And I

Where did the title of your new album come from? Our singer Emily found those unique words lying in a magical forest, hidden somewhere deep in the universe, which described perfectly the album we have worked on together to create.

How many releases do you have now? This is our debut album, and we are extremely excited to have it finished and out! Keeping it independent!

How long did it take to write/record? Well there’s 16 songs, and it took approximately 10 million billion trillion gazillion years, or at least that’s what it felt like. Realistically about three years. 

Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? Experiments! Lots of experiments! There are no rules to making music! We made the album WE wanted to make, and we’re not confined by any genre or rules.

What’s your favourite song on it? Personally I like Blubirds, it’s a crazy mash-up of strange things and the funnest song to make and play live!

Will you do anything differently next time? Everything and nothing! We started by mucking around in the studio making music for fun with no intentions, then we started getting asked to play shows. It’s rolled from there!

When and where is your launch/next gig? Our album launch is 13 Sep at Horse Bazaar, and we are doing our set in surround sound and surround visuals. Pushing the limits of technology!
