Era for music

1970’s, no contest

Part of making a record

Rehearsing with the band to get it just right…love mixing, too.

Thing about performing at festivals

The camaraderie with the other bands

Quote

“The unfed mind devours itself.”

Thing about the music industry at the moment

Auto-tune and playing to tracks…it’s not what I want to hear when I see a band live. In the studio? Sure, a little touch here and there…but sing the part, dammit. REHEARSE! And if it’s not perfect? That’s rock and roll and f it.

Thing about this year so far?

We have made our best album ever, Lente Viviente. I think you will agree….
