The festival sets are always sick! Bigger stages means the boys can burn a few calories. There is also going to be a bit of a good crew at UNIFY, So I’m pretty excited for the hangs. Not going to lie.

 

Three essential albums for any camping trip

Which band member would have the best survival skills if stranded in the bush?

I think we all would do pretty well actually, We have been stranded a few times before! So it’s nothing new to us (laughs).

 

Which bands song will become the eventual anthem for UNIFY

Warren G - Regulators

 

Best thing about music festivals?

The bigger scale shows are always so fun to play! There are usually always people you haven’t seen in a while and that always turns in to a bit of a good time.

 

Worst mistake you can make at a festival?

Coming home looking like a freshly picked chilli, Due to blowing it on the sunscreen department.

Slip,Slop,Slap Kids. Fo. Real.

 

Hypothetical: it’s 40 degrees and you need sunscreen. You can only obtain it if you trade in all the alcohol in your rider. Which do you choose and why?

Well the good thing about being engaged to and also having a red head in your band, is that there is usually always a bottle not to far away. Be a legend and pass me another beer while you’re there!
