Q1: In 15 words or less, describe your sound: Syrup with cream. Maybe some caffeine, maybe some alcohol. Many mistakes kept.
Q2: Name three influences that inspire you, with three words each on why they’re awesome:
Family: I try harder
Music: I feel lighter
Coffee: I keep goingQ3: What’s a recent song you’ve been digging? Write ten words explaining why:
Bon Iver: “Woods” Amazing smash of lullaby and bad hip-hop vocoder awesomeness!Q4: In 140 characters or less, how do you use social networking to get the word out: We use Myspace, Facebook, the regular wheat website, and e-mail. (Is that social networking?) And we still use postcards. I know that might seem old school, but we love the tangible object.
Q5: In 15 words or less, what’s next for you? Bring our new songs and love to the people. Another song, another record, another coffee.source
