If we were hanging with you and your band backstage, what would we be getting up to?
We do this stupid… I don’t know what it is. It’s where you put your hands in the middle and do this little cheer on three. (laughs) It’ll change every night. Usually it will be nerdy and dorky. We’ll see what’s happening in that moment. We’ll do a call out and then we’ll yell… we’ll all do it. We do really nerdy stuff.
If you could request anything on your rider what would it be?
Usually there would be chocolate. I’m addicted to chocolate. I’d be eating that. There’d be red wine.
Give one of your personal favourite bands a plug.
Woo. Actually there’s a new band called Vedera. They’ve got a female singer, kind of 90s inspired. I just find it refreshing. Nowadays it’s all about the pop female singer with crazy stuff going on. That’s a good, melodic rock n roll band.
What's your most essential item to take on tour?
I’ve got to take an extra cell phone charger. I always leave my cell phone chargers in the hotel room. I usually have about three or four in my bag. And extra socks. You get dirty socks and there’s nothing like putting on a dirty sock. You look in your bad and there’s this old pair from last week and you have nothing left. (laughs)
What's your secret talent?
I’m a mad ping-pong player. I’ve got to say I’m a self-proclaimed ping-pong warrior and I typically will have tournaments at my house. I have a machine that serves me balls…like a baseball thrower, a ping-pong thrower and I just hit it. I’m kind of a geek when it comes to ping-pong.
AND... Where are we best to stalk you: MySpace, Facebook or Twitter? Which one's updated the most?
I think twitter is probably the best right now. That’s a unique way of connecting with people. I’d pick twitter.
New Empire
Since their formation, the Sydney four-piece have constantly been experimenting and fusing different styles to create their original and powerful brand of music. New Empire's high energy and powerful live show combined with their heartfelt and honest music makes them one of Sydney's most popular new bands. Awoe magazine has described New Empire as "the essentials of the rock pop culture", and this is clearly echoed by thousands of music lovers across the country.
Forming in the late Summer of 2003, Euphoria Audio are a Rock/Popular band from Wakefield, UK. They have worked closely with producers Stuart Epps (Oasis, Robbie Williams, Jimmy Page) and Steve Levine (Culture Club, The Beach Boys), and most recently have recorded in Trondheim, Norway with Universals D-sign Music (Kylie Minogue, Joe Cocker).
In 2010 the band showcased at the Musexpo music conference in Los Angeles in front of world-wide delegates as well as a performance at the legendary Viper Room.
