With the current pandemic, the state of the music and touring industry has dramatically changed. Where were you when everything was brought to a halt?
Baby Boy speaking,
I was in Edmonton, planning tours for the summer!
How has that affected your plans for the coming year? Did you have a tour planned, upcoming album release?
The plan was to play festivals as always!
What have you been doing to fill/make the most of your new-found free time at home? How are you supporting your mental health through all of this?
We recorded a 5 song EP that will be out at the end of May! I have been writing a screenplay and short stories, and putting the finishing touches on a novel!
Mental health-wise, I have been doing lots of yoga and art!
How are dealing with the Covid third wave?
Third wave is tougher, I'm finding my inspiration is waning, but because we are in the nitty gritty of our EP release I can channel all that into finessing the details of these songs.
Favourite Starlite Room Moment?
In February, right before the first quarantine, Bedouin Soundclash played to a packed Starlite Room. I got to hang out with them afterwards and it was enlightening.
A few days before that, we played Temple and it was our best show yet. Playing Starlite is a goal of ours, and a dream. Ever since I was being bruised and bloodied in the mosh pits at Starlite I've dreamt of playing that stage, and we hope that comes true soon.
Do you have a message for everyone at home reading this?
I'll quote our latest single, Day by Day,
For every rock, there's a stepping stone,
For every seed, there's a growing tree,
For every bud, a blooming flower
When you're looking out into the stretch,
And the world seems like it's coming to an end,
I'll be right there beside you
Remembering all the words you said
Like Take it Day by Day, my friend.
