Give us a short description your music: We like to play music that people can have a dance to, with the odd ballad thrown in. 

What is the best thing that's happened to you/your band so far? We just did our first real multi-date tour, which was stunning. Playing all over the country has been a real highlight. 

Has the party side of the music industry been all you were hoping for so far in your career? Ah, to be honest it's not really the primary focus. But playing live is fun.

What industry lessons would you like to take away from the BIGSOUND conference? Well, we'll see. It's just great to have the opportunity to hear from a lot of different voices from all over the world, as well as to see so many great and interesting bands.

What acts are you looking forward to checking out at the BIGSOUND showcase? So many! Loose Tooth, GL, Wet Lips, DEN to name a few. 

Why should people come and see you from amongst the many cool bands at BIGSOUND? We've got a new album coming out in late October so we'll be playing a whole raft of new tunes, with a whole new set. 

When and where is your BIGSOUND showcase? 8 Sep, Ric's Bar, 9.50pm.
