Have You Heard: Gordi

"I guess it started out as my way of dealing with all the things that come with growing up."

More Gordi Gordi

When did you start making music and why? About ten years ago; I've played my whole life but I started writing at about 13. I guess it started out as my way of dealing with all the things that come with growing up.

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Old meets new world.

If you could support any band in the world — past or present — who would it be? Florence & The Machine. 

If you could only listen to one album forevermore, what would it be and why? Tapestry by Carole King; it's one of the great records. The songs are timeless and really tell a story both separately and as a whole album. 

Greatest rock'n'roll moment of your career to date? Playing at the triple j Unearthed Showcase last week to a room of people that actually knew the words to the songs I was singing. It required a good 48-hour period of celebration which left us feeling very rock'n'roll.

Why should people come and see your band? Because I think we put on a good show that's worth the $11 you usually pay for a ticket.

When and where for your next gig? VIC: Shebeen Bandroom, 3 Dec.

NSW: 10 Dec, Goodgod Small Club.
