Have You Heard: Hemingway

Name: Brad Hemingway

How did you get together? My brother and myself wrote some songs together. After being sick of working crappy jobs, we put the rest of the band together with the hope of quitting our 9-5s.

Sum up your musical sound in four words (or less). Groovy alternative.

If you could support any band in the world - past or present - who would it be? Either Led Zeppelin or the Red Hot Chili Peppers. So much live energy these guys bring to the table.

You're being sent into space, no iPod, you can bring one album – what would it be? Land Of Pleasure - Sticky Fingers is definitely a favourite. Animal, our drummer, would hate it if I didn't mention Blood Sugar Sex Magick by the Chilis.

Greatest rock'n'roll moment of your career to date? Biting the head off a Corona whilst knee-deep in human waste.

Why should people come and see your band? If you like dreadlocks, supreme mustaches, tasty guitar licks and you like to groove, you wont want to miss us.
