BIGSOUND Artist Profile: Green Buzzard

More Green Buzzard Green Buzzard Profile

Member/Role: Vaddy Harrowsmith (vocals/guitar)

Hometown: Sydney

Short description of your band and your music: Hi, we're Green Buzzard. Australia's premium amateur rock group. We play mostly covers suited to a wedding setting. 

Has the party side of the music industry been all you were hoping for so far in your career? Most of the time, Green Buzzard are on a strict fitness regime to keep in peak physical condition. For the most part we tour on a paleo diet and drink protein shakes and kale juices.

What is the best thing that's happened to you/your band so far? Getting to share a kale smoothie with my four best friends backstage before we walked out to play our first ever show.

Are your ambitions mainly artistic or commercial? 100% commercial.

Is your music best rendered in the studio or the live realm? Neither. I'd like to think it's best represented in the spiritual realm where human life is neither here nor there.

If you could have any act past or present join you on your next tour who would you tap? All the members of Scandal'us. R.I.P.

What industry lessons would you like to take away from the BIGSOUND conference? Mainly how to publicly speak at a music event. 

What acts are you looking forward to checking out at the BIGSOUND showcase? The Green Buzzard Hologram Experience. 

Why should people come and see you from amongst the many cool bands at BIGSOUND? Because our keys player, Dave, is a really nice guy. He'd really appreciate it. You just gotta trust me if you don't know him. Don't break his heart.
