Q & A

All-time favorite song?

Way too many to name! Something by the Kinks probably.

How do you describe your music to people?

Nar meets Felt.

Tell us about your best gig in Sac.

02.04.19

Sacramento Bike Kitchen. Those shows are always the most fun. Great atmosphere, a party with a PA basically.

Tell us about your worst gig.

02.04.19

First show, our friend Ella's backyard. Playing outside is always a crap shoot. It just felt like nobody was in to it, made worse of course because it was our first show and a sympathetic environment, so we expected it to be good.

What artist or band are you a little embarrassed to love, and why?

02.04.19

I'm not personally embarrassed to love the Grateful Dead, but it's the band that most people think I should be embarrassed to love!

What was the first song you learned to play?

02.04.19

"You Trip Me Up" by The Jesus & Mary Chain.

What's next for the band?

02.04.19

We are excited to announce a practice scheduled for the first weekend in February.

What's the story behind the band name?

02.04.19

We've known each other since we were kids, and this was a fake band name we made up back then, only to get used now for real.

What's your favorite local artist/group?

02.04.19

Knock Knock, Boy Romeo, Vasas, Four Eyes, Possum.

Who are your biggest influences?
