Answered by: Peter Bibby

Give us a short description your music: Yellow-stickered rusty Hilux tearing through dirt track leading to nowhere pub with coldest beer, crusty Border Collie happy in the moonlight.

What is the best thing musically that's happened to you/your band so far? Having the opportunity to travel around the country and the world playing my silly songs, which I love dearly, will always be the best thing that has happened for me musically, and legends I meet.

What industry lessons would you like to take away from the BIGSOUND conference? Discipline, compromise, calculus, international handshakes.

Why should people come and see you among the many cool bands at BIGSOUND? I can 100% guarantee that you will have a bloody good time for sure; we have riffs, facts, stories, laughers, screamers, pink ones and green ones. It'll be real as your puppy love.

What acts are on your must see list at BIGSOUND? Boat Show, Stella Donnelly, Party Dozen, POW! Negro, Abbe May, Amyl & The Sniffers, Apakatjah, Baker Boy, Donny Benet, Dream Rimmy, FEELS, Horace Bones, Jess Ribeiro, RVG.

What do you reckon your percentage mix of business vs partying will be at BIGSOUND? 100% business, I gave up partying six or seven months ago.

When and where is your BIGSOUND showcase? 5 Sep, Ric's Bar; 7 Sep, The Foundry.
