If you had to put your music in two genres, which would you choose?
Pop for sure. There’s no escaping from our melodic tones. And that’s ok! Too much bad rep about pop - a song can be both melodic and gritty and that’s what we aim for. The other genre would be indie and that’s cos we are from an independent label... is that why it’s called indie?! Seems fitting.
What kind of stuff can you imagine your music being the soundtrack for?
Train rides, snowboarding, contemplating.

What's the best part of playing live?
Have you ever played live? If you know, you know. All of it!

What have you got coming up?
