A Minute With Husband

Thursday, August 9th, 2012

We spend a minute with Husband and find out what’s happening…

HusbandDescribe your music in five words or less?
Brooding intense folk rock.

What’s going on right now in the world of Husband??
We’re playing a lot of Perth shows and just getting the name out there. I’m also currently writing and recording some more material for a release. I’m still waiting to see if we’ve been accepted for CMJ in New York this year, I’ll be so pumped if we get in.

What are the worst and best gigs you’ve ever played and why??
Best gig would have to be at The Quarry supporting The Whitlams. It was our third ever gig and the boys in Husband played so well, I was really wrapped. Plus the venue is set in an old limestone quarry, which helped make the vibe amazing.

Worst gig would have to be our second show. I drunk way to much Jagermeister, things got a bit out of control…

Tell us something about your music that we might not know?
For me to like a song I’ve recorded I have to be able to play it solo on an acoustic guitar and it needs to hold my attention. I really love producing a song and putting everything I can into the recording but I feel if a song can’t be played solo then there’s something lacking.

You’re putting together your perfect local gig? Who would you get to play, why and where? Feel free to include acts/DJs/bands/venues that no longer exist
A show supporting Abbe May would be awesome. I love her songs, they sound genuine. The show would be at The Bakery, but without the circus tent. I loved how before when it rained everyone had to come inside and watch the support band.
