Interview – Temporary Dreamer

INTERVIEW // The Vanns on: Red Light, Touring and Influences

We caught up with Illawarra legends The VANNS to chat about touring, memories, and their latest killer single ‘Red Light’. Here’s what they had to say about it

INTERVIEW // Hattie Oates on ‘Her Latest Single, Getting Back On Stage and Road Trip Traditions

I don’t think sticking to a genre as an artist is as important these days as it used to be because the music world is so single based. You could do a whole album of completely different genres and you would be picking a different audience for each track which I don’t think is a negative thing.

INTERVIEW// Holly Hebe On: Musical Journeys, Creative Sampling and The Future.

We moved around a lot there, it’s funny to think about all the different houses and the different stages of my life in each space

INTERVIEW // Creo: Jorjee on ‘Demon to Love’, Self Reflection and Sydney Culture

There’s a lot of trial and error, back and forth, and about 20 versions of the song before we got to the final version that we stuck with, whether it was the intertwining melodies that were too distracting or having to remove one or two things. It’s the trial and error that makes the process an arduous journey, but in the end a rewarding one.

INTERVIEW // Gabriel Paris On: Musical Journeys, Inspiration and the Future

I have issues confronting my true feelings in some situations… I need something that gets everything down in black and white.

INTERVIEW // Sampson: On ‘Closer’, Inspiration and Live Shows

I remember singing but I could hear everyone else singing the lyrics cos they new the song, which was crazy like I almost felt like I should stop singing and just let them sing it.

INTERVIEW // SCABZ: Siobhan On: Saxophones, Politics and ‘Guess Who’

People who have seen us live will know that we like to crack jokes and have a fun time. There’s also a bit of political commentary, and I think that it’s the first time that we’ve tried to tap in and write songs with a bit more of an introspective look at how politics affects us opposed to how the world around us affects us, and how we all fit into the that world in a bit more depth.

INTERVIEW // Cry Club on: Matching Suits, Lady Gaga, Growing and ‘God I’m Such a Mess’

We don’t want to look what a pop artist looks like. We don’t want to look like what you think a punk artist should look like. We just want to be like ourselves.

INTERVIEW // Ok Hotel: On Dreams, ‘Life is Crazy’ and Relaunching

We have had a lot more time to do things. We made music videos for both the songs we released this year, which is something we might not have had enough time to do if we weren’t all locked down. With everyone on their phone a lot more we felt it was really important to make something super visual.

Interview // Maria Amato on: The AIR Awards and Indie-Con

AIR strives to recognise, promote and celebrate the success of Australia’s Independent Music sector and does this via a weekly production of Australian Independent Music charts, a newsletter and a strong social push to promote new independent music.
