Interview:
Paul from Sisemore
|

|
| |
|
What got this band together and started in this business?
|
| |
|
I really wanted to see if I could assemble a band that would want to be in that band
based solely on if they liked the songs I was writing. There have been a couple of line-up changes
in the 4 years we've been together, but so far, so good.
|
| |
|
Who writes and produces all the material for the band?
|
| |
|
I write the songs. Usually by the time I present them they're pretty complete.
Recording-wise, I have a pretty complete picture of what I want them to be as well. But there's
always a collaborative effort in effect.

| |
|
Where can people access your music on the web?
|
| |
|
As usual, all the iTunes, and e-store outlets as well as local record shops in Florida.
www.sisemoreband.com also.
|
| |
|
Who are the band's musical influences?
|
| |
|
Never an easy question... I grew up on Elvis and The Beatles if that helps...
|
| |
|
What is your musical background like?
|
| |
|
Singing was my first love. I was lucky to have been in The Chattanooga Boys Choir as a kid before
moving to Florida. When I got my first guitar I was 12, not long after that I had my first band in
junior hgh. Can't remember the name, but we played at a pool party and we only knew a few songs,
so Freebird is forever etched in my mind!
|
| |
|
Any other members in your family that are musicians?
|
| |
|
My cousin Doug is Reba's keyboard player and musical arranger, that's about it.
|
| |
|
What has been your best show?
|
| |
|
So far the best was an outdoor thing where we were upstaged by the K-9 unit in St. Pete! The
organizers asked us to take a "short" break so they (K-9 unit) could let people see their skills.
We never got back on stage!
