Monroze - Interview
Yesterday while I was in Covent Garden I waked past the Pretty Green shop and saw a band setting up for an in-store. Soon enough I found out it was the up and coming band Monroze (by looking at the setlist), as I had never heard any of their material before I was pleasantly surprised and found their sound captivating. I fell in love with their whole aura so couldn't resist asking for a sneaky interview and heres the output.
1.How
did it feel to be able to play an instore in Pretty Green which is run by such an
iconic
musical figure (Liam Gallagher)?
It's a privilege to play there and it's always great when there's a good turn-out. We think that the way
that Liam has connected fans of music with clothing is a great idea.
2.What
are your musical goals you would like to accomplish this year?
To grow as a band and to promote our E.P that we're recording next week, we're also looking forward
to playing some gigs in the summer.
3.How
did Monroze
form/come about and how did you guys meet?
I (Tom) have known jack the drummer for years and and met Matt when
he phoned me up after being told I needed a bassist. So we all got together
and have been a band since mid 2013.
