Any other members in your family that are musicians?

 

Pretty much everyone in my direct family (apart from my mother)!

 

What is the top reason why you want to play music?

 

I don't want to, I have to. This is my calling and I realized that years ago which is why I quit my Telecommunications Network Designer job and focused on music. In the past, I helped major networks in major countries build their internet infrastructure. I used to tell them how to better their networks and helped major telcos in South Africa, Europe and North America prepare for 3G and the communication infrastructure that every one sees and uses today.

 

So your awesome (or unreliable) internet connection is, in part, to do with my design and my work! Music heals my soul and I will forever be creating, playing or producing music. I don't want to be a part of music, I HAVE to. This is my calling.

 

Tell us about your best show.

As mentioned before we are slim on the ground as far as live shows go. Hoever, our debut live show is thus far our best. As it was in a nightclub we sadly did it with backing tracks but we slammed it with live autotune (which was unseen by a band of our level at that point). What made it the best is the fact that we developed a live video which was projected 360 degrees around the club as we performed. We had a prime spot and we went down very well.

 

I'm looking forward to hitting down with a live band though because the haters like to label us and don't think we can actually play. You just watch! It's all I will say. When the time comes we are gonna rock all of your worlds!
