on Tully.

tully-on-tully-final-imageWhich local artists have inspired your music?

Neighbourhood Youth, Pourparlour, Playwrite, Secondhand Heart… there are so many! Particularly from a live aspect because they’re the bands that we’re seeing on a regular basis.

How do you go about writing and composing songs?

Our old songs were written by me and then brought to the band to arrange but all the newer tracks started as jams that I wrote lyrics for later. We got into a real groove writing our debut album – I think we’re all itching to write the next one already!

What would be your advice for other aspiring musicians?

Keep making music and work your arse off.

Friday April 17 – Lennox Hotel, Lennox Heads.

Sunday April 19 – Rails, Byron Bay.
