Artist Profile

How would you describe your sound and what are some of your influences?
A guitar driven sound, elements of funk from the bass - from full on towering guitars to subtle moments of acoustic reflection. Influenced by everyone from Led Zep, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, QOTSA, Tool, The Black Crowes and many many more. All good music becomes an influence for us in some capacity.
If you were to pick one festival to play what would it be and why?
One of the big Summer Rock festivals like Download or Rock Am Ring would be fun and suited to our style. Glasto would be an interseting one to play too. Hell, we\'d play a festival in your backgarden if we could!
Lager or Cider?
Lager makes me happy, vodka makes me mean I\'m a heavy metal, drinking, driving, alcohol machine Listen to me drinking, drinky drinky drink Listen to me when I go \"Bleauuurgh!!!\" Vim - Bad News
Who would you like to support?
The Black Crowes, awesome live band - masters of their art! The ultimate support slot would have to be with Zep though!
What’s your favourite album this year?
Think we all liked Alice In Chains return after 10 years without them! Green Day, Pearl Jam, Metallica, Kings of Leon & U2 have also put excellent records out this year.
Any weird things happened to you at a gig?
Plenty, usualy surrounding Dave P! He seems to have a gypsy curse when it comes to guitar straps & strap locks.
What can people expect when coming to your gig?
Plenty of energy, a good honest loud live experience. We always try and mix things up depending on where we are playing, don\'t like to make two gigs exactly the same.
Have you ever been crowd surfing?
Nope, health & safety put pay to that....
Give me 5 reasons why people should come and see you live?
It\'s fun, it\'s powerful, it\'s always different, it\'s ego-free and it\'s rubbish playing to an empty room so do please come along!
Complete the sentence - In a perfect world I would?
Be sitting in a guitar shaped swimming pool. ;0)
To which record label would you most liked to be signed to?
One that will pay for our guitar shaped swimming pools...
How did you come up with your name?
An ex-girlfriend of a band member, she had a one leg shorter than the other. She was called Dawn.
What do you do in the real world?
2 members work at a Uni, One attends a Uni and the other works in a Primary School.
How did you get together? (if you’re a group etc)
That\'s a long story...
What’s the big game plan?
Enjoy writing, recording & playing music, doesn\'t matter what level you are at - if there is no passion then it\'s time for another hobby / job!
How has your music evolved since you first began playing music together?
Yeah, think we have naturally got tighter and certainly heavier in many respects. We also tend not to overcomplicate songs and ideas so much theese days. Sarah (new bass player) has also added a new dimension, plenty of groove and funk in the rythm section now.
Have you ever thrown a TV out a window? If not, would you like to?!
Behave.
What’s on your rider?
A kettle and a chair.
So, you think you’re going to big hey – What makes you so different?
We think we are good at what we do, we enjoy it, crowds enjoy it. It\'s best to judge for yourself...
What's on your rider? (What do you demand for doing a gig)
10,000 brown M&M\'s
