Interview: 29 March 2010
Tell us about your music – how did you develop your sound?
I spent a couple of years demoing songs in my bedroom- I didnt really have the intention of releasing anything. I started thinking about concepts for an album in 2008- and collected heaps music i liked- I bought a stack of music in 2008. I took ideas from the music of my favorite acts, and started stylizing my demos more- recreating grooves and ripping off chord progressions i liked. I started re-doming on my 4 track, then re-re- doming again on my computer- throwing songs around untill i knew what was going to work and what wasn't. I sat on the songs for a few months and had a chat to engineer Steve Schram about booking a session to do a record- thats how EatW came about.

What can the audience expect at a live show?
We break it down to a 5 piece- But if we are doing our own show, we gig as a 9 piece. With brass, hammond, synth, the works. Its a loud show. At the moment we are jamming the arrangements that are on the record. Playing the things we have recorded.

What are the plusses and minuses of a nine piece band?
It can be a drag trying to get weekly full band rehearsals- be the pay load is worth it.

What’s coming up in the future?
We are going to sticking around Melbourne for a couple of months, playing shows with friends bands. Planning to release another 7 inch in June before the Album later in the Year.

Australian music is?
I can go out any night of the week- and see some of the best music in the world for the price of a pizza slice. We have a lot of little labels to support us with releasing all the different music out there. Australian Music is great- Amazing actually.
