Have You Heard: The Milkmen

Answered by: Elliot Careswell

When did you start making music and why? We formed the band in 2006 as part of a music course at Leederville TAFE.

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Velvety and beautiful.

If you could support any band in the world – past or present – who would it be? Kings Of Leon.

If you could only listen to one album forevermore, what would it be and why? The Verve – Urban Hymns. Always been a favourite of ours and a musical inspiration.

Greatest rock’n’roll moment of your career to date? Winning Rockingham Hotel Battle of the Bands in our home town.

Why should people come and see your band? To experience music the way it’s meant to be experienced: honest and heartfelt.

When and where for your next gig? PULMAC band showcase 16 May at Civic Backroom, Inglewood.
