We played some gigs in Switzerland a couple of weeks ago and it was the first time I really felt the group was really a band in the sense of something I could write for.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I feel so lucky to have been in a group where it was a real band. This wasn't a singer and guitar player and some other guys.
I've never been in a band, but I've hung out with a lot of musicians and helped them with their shows. It's something that I'm really drawn to.
I learned the songs and played the gigs, and then they called me about a month later. They told me they were like super stoked on me and asked me to join their band.
The band we have now on stage is the band I always wanted to be in.
We were really grown up for our age and it was an incredible special band.
This band is a real collaboration, and I'm greatful to anybody who can appreciate our music. It doesn't have to be a certain kind of fan or person or anything. I think there's a little bit of something for everybody on this record.
At the time, we thought it was a nice way to say something unique about the group to make us different from all the other bands kicking around in London.
Joining another big time rock band was the last thing I was looking for, but as the tour went on, I really dug playing to a lot of people, the band sounded great, and just being out there again, got me over my depression and so I decided to hop on board.
I wanted to be in a band that shared ideas and were in it together.
I would've loved to have been in a band, but sadly I just wasn't good enough.
