Originally published on July 21st 2009 one of our most popular posts was riddled with font errors, old pictures, mis-alignment and general annoyances. However, today I finally reached boiling point. After pouring a cup of Coffee I started to rejuvenate an old interview with one of today’s hottest bands….
*Bear in mind this interview was conducted last-year so not all of the information may still stand*
1. Undoubtedly the majority of rockers will have heard of My Passion by now. Yet, for those who still haven’t, what are your main goals as a band?
Today I suspect some of you will be going ‘who’ whilst the more veterans amongst us will be going ‘ooooh’. Either way you’re going to need the current issue of Kerrang! and in particular page 14… *pause for you to skip off and purchase it*
Ok as well as gaining Kerrang! another sale (what a sneaky devil I am) you should all now be going ‘oooh’ – hopefully in public so you’re getting bizarre stares.
That’s right, Katie P is the talented journalist behind the Kerrang! ‘Introducing’ articles and also currently part of the Kerrang! Tour ‘crew’. We caught up with Katie to talk Kerrang!, radio, and desert islands?….
I know what you’re thinking right now, ‘Franceschi, where have I heard that name before?’ Even more so…delve further into your mind and you’ve probably wondered before who the outstanding female vocals were on Always Attract?
Of course it’s none other then Elissa Franceschi sister to You Me At Six’s frontman Josh. Earlier on in the week we caught up with Elissa to discuss her solo career, super groups, toilet seats and whisky in one of our most interesting interviews yet!…
“Born and raised in the sleepy town of Stratford-Upon-Avon, England – 17-year-old singer/songwriter Portia Conn has always had her sights set on breaking out.” And yes she really has done it! Latest ‘pop-rock’ sensation Portia has managed to already successfully gain a record label in both the UK and USA after only 3 gigs. Showing nothing but complete dedication and devotion towards her music we decided to have a chat with the latest teen star!…
Q1: With the release of ‘I don’t Care’ rapidly approaching, could you tell us a bit about the songs meaning?
It’s been a while since we last caught up with Lecarla, although lead singer Lizzy eventually started to get tired around the Paris section. Taking advantage of the situation we quizzed her on band life, touring, and world domination?….
Q: What’ve you been up to since we last spoke to you?
Fancy Me Yet are an American based band that certaintly have a lot of experiance behind them!The bands singer Natasha had an unprecident amount of success during her early music career been nominated for3Latin Grammys. As well as Natasha the band who describe their influances as ‘The Killers’ and ‘Inner Party System’ also consists of the Drummer Chris, and Alex; Guitarist and part-vocalist.
Below we have a small interview with the band that clearly show’s they can have a laugh as well as produce great music. Enjoy!
1.Hey guys, thanks for answering some questions! They Sink Ships, it’s a pretty unique band name, where did it come from?
We get that alot haha, its really a spin off from an old saying “Loose lips sink ships” They sink ships sounded a little bit snappier!
2. One of your songs has over 30k plays,which often many unsigned bands don’t get anywhere near that. What was your reaction when you found out the popularity of your songs?
With today being the release of Saving Aimee’s ‘We’re The Good Guys’ we caught up with Saving Aimee to ask them some questions regarding the song and general band life.
