WAMFest Focus: Barefeet Sojourns

Answered by: Sari - singer, melodica and dancer 

Give us a short description of your music: UNIQUE. Our very own version of world music. A gypsy, roots, ska, reggae fusion. Colourful and vibrant, yet soulful. 

What is the best thing that's happened to you/your band so far? To have met the right people at the right time and being the strong team that we are. Our WA tour was a massive highlight as well as having played with lots of great bands. 

Has the party side of the music industry been all you were hoping for so far in your career? What party? Either we haven't reached that stage yet or we ain't real rockstars! No seriously, it's been a lot of loading vans and rehearsing. But we feel more content than ever. Living the dream. 

What industry lessons would you like to take away from WAMFest? Hmm... I'd be interested to find out more about different management options, labels, agents, publicist etc. Sometimes the overload in information, do's and don'ts can certainly be overwhelming. Please shine some light on it WAMFest! 

What acts are you looking forward to checking out at WAMFest? Diversity is key! So many bands to choose from! Let's say spontaneity, mood and impulse will decide during the festivities. 

Why should people come and see you from amongst the many cool bands at WAMFest? Well... because we are awesome (Ha!). AND if you like dancing and moving, you have found home in us. No really, BFS have no frames; we play what feels right to us. 

When and where is your WAMFest gig? 5 Nov, Universal Bar.
