Thanks Seth!
What genre would you place your band in? "Country be-bop with a heavy twist."
Who are the members of your band? "Well recently there has been a lot of turmoil that most people may not know about, so we have lost a couple of people and are now finding replacements. Some of those replacements have been found and we really don't want to give away anything at the moment. Some of the members names that I will say are Me, James Davila (vocals), and Jason Pedigo (bass.)"
What instrument (s) do you play? "I play the guitar, or at least I try. I've been told numerous times that I suck! That is for the masses to decide."
What are your musical influences? "Hmm...good one. Well, I tend to draw influences from the music I like but I don't aim to sound exactly like the bands that I like. Some of the bands I like are Earth Crisis, Pig Destroyer, Killswitch Engage and old Sepultura. Oh yeah--beer is a good influence, too. Helps the writing process. Jager, too."
What is your favorite band/musician right now? "My favorite band of all time is The Police. Damn that is an awesome band. Right now I am really digging some underground bands that most people don't give a shit about, but they should. I like a band called Raunchy from Denmark, I am also into Demonhunter and a band called Celldweller."
What inspires you to play? "Just the fun of it, I suppose. There is no other feeling in the world than when someone tells you that they really like your music. That rules."
What's the best show you've ever played? Why? "There are a couple that come to mind. One being the show we played with Skinlab at the Prince. That was a trip because those guys are awesome and they really helped us out with some sponsorship. Another good one was the TN Valley Fair. I know it sounds corny, but that was killer because everyone in that tent was going apeshit and screaming along with us. Some guy even got his leg broke it was so crazy!"
What is the worst show you've ever played? Why? "Um the worst one I've ever played was in Chattanooga at the Bay. Everything was going good for a while. And if you've ever been to one of our shows, you know that we try to give it all we have and go apeshit. Well our bass player tends to get a little out of hand ever so often and at this particular show he went over the edge and knocked over my entire rig. The whole thing went crashing down. We had to stop playing for about ten minutes so we could get it up and working again. Then after that I broke like two strings. It sucked."
Do you have a favorite venue? If so, what is it? "I like to play the Masquerade in Atlanta. That place has a really cool vibe. The best place I have been to see a show is the Roxy Theatre in Atlanta. Awesome sound and every spot in the club is a good spot to see a band."
So whats going on with your band right now? "Writing and revamping. We are really eager to get back out on the scene. We really want to become a local band again. There for awhile we got away from our home ground and played everywhere other than here. We want to get back to that again."
Do you have any shows coming up? "Not for a good while. We want to be ready to make people's heads spin when we hit the scene again. So we are writing new songs that we think will go over well. Plus we are sort of in the feeling out process of our new members. We want to hopefully be back out on the scene by mid-May or early June."
Is there anything else you'd like to add? "I want to thank you for what you are doing for the local scene. This town needs more people like you to help unite the bands and fans. Keep up the good work. And to all of our fans out there: Please be patient...we will be back very soon!"
