Have You Heard: Babylon Burning

Prepare to get loose with Babylon Burning at Follow The Sun Festival

Answered by: Daniel Spencer

How did you get together? We all went to school or uni together, it started with four of us jamming as a rhythm section and then we grew out from there.

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Reggae rockers for dancing

If you could support any band in the world – past or present – who would it be? Tough question, past has to be Bob Marley, present Fat Freddy’s Drop are incredible.

You’re being sent into space, no iPod, you can bring one album – what would it be? The Fugees’ album The Score is a classic, especially Lauryn Hill’s verses.

Greatest rock’n’roll moment of your career to date? Sam running off stage at a loose club gig once after a few too many beers. I grabbed his bass and played while we jammed. He made it back before the end of the song. I don’t think anyone noticed.

Why should people come and see your band? If you like dancing to reggae, intense percussion solos and your horns loud we’d love to see you!

When and where for your next gig? 5 Oct, Follow the Sun Festival, Wigley Reserve
