Why Dappled Cities ‘Suck’

On the back of new album Lake Air and currently in the middle of a tour, Dappled Cities' Tim Derricourt has told Inpress, that his band kinds of sucks at… well, being a band.

Speaking to the paper recently he said, “We are this odd band that kind of suck at being a band.”

He continued, “We're good friends and we play good shows but at the same time I don't think we've ever been good at being that kind of band that puts everything into the one record, and comes out with this complete vision. We're always learning, and I think that's the opposite to a lot of bands that come out strong and maybe fall away after a while.”

To the external observer, Sydney's Dappled Cities have something of an on-off nature. But from the inside its evident that that's not for lack of creativity.

“Honestly, I could make a Dappled record right now,” Derricourt said, “and I'll make another one after that. We've just never been creatively stifled. We just always feel like we've got more in us.”
