Meatstock Artist Focus: The Tommyhawks

Answered by: Addison Axe

Tell us your best BBQ-related memory: We crowd-funded our last EP and one reward was us cooking a BBQ. It was awesome until Thea's hair caught fire. Now her fringe is SUPER short. Fringe-singe.

What's your favourite thing to throw on the BBQ and why? Definitely tempeh. It's mind-blowingly awesome and 100% corpse-free.

If you had to use one BBQ/meat-based dish as an analogy for your music, what would it be and why? BBQ pineapple because it's hot, juicy, tastes like summer and is an unusually tangy addition to your meal.

Will you ask for meat instead of booze on your rider? I'm vegan so probably not! There are two vegans and a vegetarian in our band so we'll be surviving the day on a diet of beer (lots) and fried onions (hopefully).

What are you hoping to take away from Meatstock? Fun memories! We love playing and we love touring and we love festivals and seeing other bands so we're gonna have a rad time.
