We are a five piece melodic rock band from Pompano Beach, FL
What are all your feelings on how people are categorizing different music, lately?
People always like to label stuff there is nothing you can do about it. It really doesn't bother me unless people don't give something a chance just because its not labeled the type of music they are into.
What bands have influence you?
I like Sunny Day Realestate, 238, Element 101, Radiohead, Bjork. I also like Coltrane, Miles, Jim Hall, Joe Diorio, Keith Jarrett, Dave Holland.
what inspires your songs?
I personally just write what comes to me. Sometimes I have to work at it and sometimes it just flows. Music is my inspiration, there is so much great stuff to listen too.
what's the weirdest situation you've been in that has spawned a song?
I wrote an idea on a junky acoustic in some kids basement we stayed at on tour and that later became Pride War. I guess that's not to weird but I remember it well.
who writes most of the songs, where do they get their influences and stong matrerials from?
Josh Colbert generally writes the beginnings of songs and then everyone adds their parts and changes stuff around.
What is the best concert you have been too?
Jim Hall at the Village Vanguard in NYC
If you could describe your live show, how would you?
An energetic and loud experience.
what's the most funny/dangerous/weird thing that's happened to you on tour?
Funny - All the pranks we play on our tour manager chuck "chooch" Andrews. Dangerous- almost going of a mountain road in the middle of the night on black ice
Weird - Having a guy show up to a video shoot "the sound" dressed as a female cavewoman.
What would be your dream concert to play?
Open for Sunny day and Led Zeppelin.
What are some bands you would recommend people to listen too?
238, Element 101, Elliot, Sunny Day Realestate.
If you could describe your live show, how would you?What are some future plans for the band?
We hope to record again in December and keep on the road all year.
What type of equipment do each of you guys use?
I use a Bogner Shiva Head through a Bogner 4x12 cabinet. I play a Gibson Les Paul Standard and a Gibson ES335.
Anything else you would like to add?
Listen to as much music in as many different styles as possible because you never know what will inspire you. Be open minded to listening to new stuff.
