How did you get together? Tinder Party at the Boundary Hotel. No. The band has been around for a long time and has seen many different incarnations. Drew and Brenton joined in the last year from another local band, Vayer.
Sum up your musical sound in four words? Stoner blues heavy soul.
If you could support any band in the world – past or present – who would it be? In a fantasy world it’d be Jimi Hendrix. These days it’d probably be Queens Of The Stone Age (bring back Nick!).
You’re being sent into space, no iPod, you can bring one album – what would it be? Probably Exile On Main St. – something about The Rolling Stones makes me feel at home. I’d take this one because it’s a double album and I never gave it a proper listen.
Greatest rock’n’roll moment of your career to date? Played a ruckus show with Money For Rope at the Boundary Hotel a while back, it had everything: people were rolling around on the floor, beer bottles were getting thrown around, we had to take exile atop a pool table.
Why should people come and see your band? It’s a unique mix of old and new styles, we work hard to put on a good show.
When and where for your next gig? Lefty’s Old Time Music Hall on 10 & 11 Oct, should be a bloody riot!
