Have You Heard: Custom Royal

Answered by: Dion Mariani

When did you start making music and why? I grew up surrounded by music, so I guess I begun as soon as I could form a beat or melody, which was probably around something like three years old.

Sum up your musical sound in four words?  Rock. Loud. Fast. Wanton.

If you could support any band in the world – past or present – who would it be? The Backstreet Boys? Probably Led Zeppelin or The Stones, that would be pretty surreal.

If you could only listen to one album forevermore, what would it be and why? The Beatles – Abbey Road.

Greatest rock’n’roll moment of your career to date? Opening for David Hasselhoff... Or the time I went for a big jump on stage and subsequently landed on my ass.

Why should people come and see your band? Darcy has always wanted to impersonate Hendrix at Monterey despite being a drummer and it’s sure to happen soon enough!

When and where for your next gig? We’ve been lucky enough to be supporting Bruce Foxton’s From The Jam on 5 Mar, Capitol.
