[INTERVIEW PREVIEW]
SUR: So you have been voted Straight Up Random’s first ever Top Unsigned Band for the month of January! How do you feel about all your fan support?
Personally, I feel extremely grateful. Our growing fan-base is immensely awesome and they all radically support us. We have a lot of fans that have stuck with us since our first few shows and that means the world to us. We really push to stay in touch with each and every single person who supports us.
SUR: For those who don’t know your band, how did the you come together?
We developed in the late summer of 2009 after all of our old bands had decided to call it quits. The four of us decided to form this project based on good vibes, our common goals and aspirations, and the amount of fun we have playing music together.
SUR: Was it one specific event that influenced you to play your instrument and/or sing?
I’d say it was a bunch of things, I would always sing melodies to myself growing up. When I hit middle school, after already taking piano lessons for years, I became really interested in my family and my roots. At that time I inherited a super vintage guild guitar that was my grandfather’s. I then found out my grandfather was a professional musician and that really inspired me to start writing music. When I hit highschool and started talking to friends about making music I was really pushed to put myself out there and that really helped me get to where I am today, personally as a musician and vocalist.
