"We are so isolated over here, its a real challenge to get your music out there so its almost like we have to try harder and be better to get heard."

Answered by: Danny K, Producer and Jay Le Kat, Vocalist

Short description of your band and music: We are two pals that create dreamy, fun electro-pop music for everyone to enjoy.

Best WAM-related story? Danny drank three pints of confidence boosting beer and then went and spoke to the head of a company that we ended up signing to later that year. Most importantly, getting nominated for the first time for Best New Act! Such an honour to be placed in such an awesome category with such amazing talent!

What do you think separates the WA music scene apart from the rest of the country? We are so isolated over here, its a real challenge to get your music out there so its almost like we have to try harder and be better to get heard. That's why I think there is so much talent in WA. The challenge makes us want to succeed that much more.

What WA bands are you vibing on right and why? Well San Cisco have always been one of our faves. Koi Child are so much fun to watch live and we love young'ns Mosquito Coast and what they are doing right now. So excited that a Perth act won Unearthed High!

Why should people come and see you from amongst the many cool bands at WAM? Because the Block Party is where all the dance parties will be at and we will dance with you if you dance with us! Our overall goal with our live show is to make everyone have an awesome time, every time.

What's on the horizon for you? We have almost finished our song a month promise, and our second EP is finished! We will be releasing it early next year. And we are most excited about writing for the first few months!
