A Band You Can’t Miss!

 

Hi Roadies!

 

Have you seen my Instagram stories from last night? If you have, you’d already know that I was at “The Bitter End” for The Revolver concert and interview. This band surprised me in a good way because, despite everyone being very young, they have an enviable stage presence. Their second album came out recently, and we noticed a vast improvement over their debut record.

Q: On your first album, you experimented a lot with genres. You covered a wide range on the spectrum. However, in your latest work, the funk turn is the common thread from the first to the last song. How did you make that decision?

A: The truth is much less poetic than you can imagine. On the first album, we were looking for our identity. We wanted to do something that might please everyone a little bit. In the second, we were more selfish and played only what we like, what amuses us, and what makes us remember why we started making music.

Q: So, should we expect this direction on the next albums as well?

A: We can’t be sure because people grow, mature, tastes change, but unless it takes fifteen years to release the next one, I’m pretty sure it’s going to be something down this line.

Q: In the spring, you start an overseas tour with twelve concerts around Europe. There are many venues planned but also two big festivals. What should fans who come to hear you expect?

A: Yes, we still can’t believe we’re finally going to visit Europe. We have a loyal fan base over there and decided to go and meet them. Some of them came to the US to follow us on tour here. They’re a blast. It’s time for us to reward them for their support. What they can expect is an energetic tour like the concert you saw tonight. We’re going to make them dance and sweat at every show!

Be kind and Rock’n’Roll,

Iris
