What made you go into music? Is there a particular artist or song that changed your life and led you into that direction?
No we just felt artsy and decided it would be a good way to make new friends!

So we heard you recently signed to Arcade Records. What do you think of them?
They are really good! They are about to pay for us to record with Geoff Rockwall who recorded such bands as: Sky Eats Airplane, Artist vs. Poet, And Forever The Sickest Kids

Do you have any plans to get into the studio soon?
Yes. We are planning on recording two or three more songs by the end of this month! :D

Making new friends, and hearing that people like our music and it makes them happy!

What are your rehearsals generally like? Do you have a set time each week in which you practice or are rehearsals more spontaneous?
We usually practice every day for about an hour. We go over our songs twice and its very organized.

What can you tell me about your instruments? (i.e., Are you subject to brand loyalty or will you play with whatever’s available? What made you choose the instruments you have now? Was it cost or was it a style/model/brand/color preference?)
The guitars don’t matter to us, but our KorgMicro is our favorite instrument! It’s awesome and gives us a unique sound!

What advice would you give someone who wants to form their own band?
Stay in it, keep practicing, and don’t give up!
