1.Growing Up
Both of us grew up in Sydney, raised on a steady diet of Saturday morning music television – Rage, Recovery and early-2000s-era skateboarding video soundtracks.
2. Inspirations
We pull from our day-to-day lives, living in Sydney, friends and people we know and meet. Maybe if we meet we can write a song about you?
3.Your Band
Unity Floors consists of my friend Henry Gosling and myself. Henry plays the drums and I play the guitar. We met while both training at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra for their badminton team, which neither of us made the cut for, so now we play music instead.
4.The Music You Make
We’ve been called a lot of things – alternative or indie rock is a pretty safe bet. There’s some distortion at times and some quiet moments too. Some songs are upbeat and fast and some songs not so much. We started playing music together as just something to do so it’s real cool anyone would want to listen or see us play.
5. Music, Right Here, Right Now
Music is one of the best things ever. Right now I’m listening to another duo from Canberra called Honey – they don’t sound like us, they are much more electronic-based and that’s cool too. Sometimes I like to listen to bands with more than two people in them. Sydney is a great place for music and I think it always will be.
Life Admin is out now through Popfrenzy; and Unity Floors play The Chippendale Hotel on Friday October 28.
