1. Your Profile
Much like Tinder we joined this band to get some action, free booze and maybe a bite to eat. But also like Tinder, encounters don’t always live up to expectations, yet it always ends with a good story.
2. Keeping Busy
We’ve been busy recording our next EP The Heathen Circus. Coming off 24 months of solid touring it’s been amazing to lay low in the hills of Byron Bay recording the songs we wrote on the road. We just released the film clip for the opening single ‘Let You Go’, which we shot in Sydney with cinematographer/director Danielle Payne, and we’re about to hit the road again on the single tour.
3. Best Gig Ever
At the beginning of last year we did a 60-date national tour. We did the whole thing in a van, about 30,000kms. We played the final show in Sydney, we hadn’t been home in four months and we couldn’t believe the turnout – the vibe was electric, it was the perfect welcome home.
4. Current Playlist
Being off the road we have had the chance to catch up on some awesome live music in our hometown Sydney. Just to name a few: The Murlocs at OAF, Sticky Fingers at Enmore Theatre, Bootleg Rascal at Manning Bar and recently we just managed to squeeze in to the Chippendale Hotel to catch Methyl Ethel.
5. Your Ultimate Rider
We once rocked up backstage stoked to find what we thought was two bottles of vodka – it turned out to be this disgusting fortified wine but luckily one of the locals we met that night really took a liking to it and ended up generously hosting one of the craziest afterparties we’ve ever attended.
Lepers And Crooks play Oxford Art Factory on Saturday May 14.
