Leaps And Bounds Focus 2016: Duncan Phillips & The Long Stand

Answered by: Duncan Phillips

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Country, folk, rock, pop.

What other events/gigs are you looking forward to at Leaps & Bounds? Dan Brodie, Brown River, Acid Country Live From The Rainbow.

What do you think is the best thing about a festival like Leaps & Bounds? It raises awareness of live music taking place in the City of Yarra during a time of year that gig attendance can be down due to weather.

What are your favourite places to hang out in the City Of Yarra and why? The Rainbow — atmosphere, beer garden, good music, great food and better people. The Gasometer — excellent live music venue. The Gem — food, beer, music, style and good folks. 

Why should people come and see your band at Leaps & Bounds? People who come to my gig will get two album launches for the price of one. With both bands bringing in extra musicians especially for the night in order to reproduce their respective albums.

When and where is your Leaps & Bounds appearance? 7 Jul, The Gasometer Hotel.
