'I Wanted My Album To Feel Bigger Than Just Music': Charley On 'The Chronicles Of A Serial Idealist'

Have You Heard: Cordeaux

Answered by: Jamie Lin

When did you start making music and why? Jordan and I started working together in high school after stealing chords from Train’s songs and entered the talent comp and won. We figured we could make a living on plagiarism.

Sum up your musical sound in four words? QotSA meets No Doubt.

If you could support any band in the world – past or present – who would it be? Queeeen!

If you could only listen to one album forevermore, what would it be and why? Jordan: Wolfmother’s self-titled album. Why? Because they are a combination of Zeppelin and Sabbath. What more could you want? It gets you going.

Greatest rock’n’roll moment of your career to date? Jamie: I was doing Joker & The Thief for a uni performance and I had all my class pals being legends and moshing/singing the song along with me, treating me like a rock star and grabbing my hand while screaming.

Why should people come and see your band? We’re jacked with Asian-persuasion, front and back with Greek gods manning the bass and an Italian stallion handing the riffs.

When and where for your next gig? Trainspotters, 16 May, playing on sexy line-up with Muddy Chanter, Nila Bonda and The Spanish Mittens.
