• When and how did the band form?
The band sort of fell together in early 2012..ive played bass since school and when my cousin Dean got a guitar a few years ago we started jamming and ended up coming up with our own songs. Euan is an old school friend of Deans and eventually we asked him and he was keen to come and drum for us.
· Where did the name for your band come from?
Haha this seems to be a popular question for us! It was completely intentional for us to get a distinctive name that looked good written down and it did take a while to get one we were happy with. It’s the name of a clothing website and a famous Italian novel it means boys or lads.
• For anyone who hasn't listened to your music what genre would you class it as?
Its a difficult question to answer...we would say we are a guitar band You decide.
• What do you think of the local music scene?
The local scene is in a very healthy state right now..there’s so many great acts around and Inverness has plenty of venues willing to put on local bands...Lionel and Topher Elliott are definite favourites of ours from the local scene.
· What music do you all listen to and has any of it influenced you when writing any songs?
We all listen to different styles and eras of music... biggest influence for us is without doubt The Vaccines..when there first album came out it really was the kick up the arse we needed to get a band going.
· So you’re playing one of the Summer Showcases at the Ironworks in Inverness (Thursday 18th July), have you got any other gigs lined-up soon?
The ironworks gig will be our biggest so far and we are really excited about it, we are playing at the box in glasgow this saturday 15th its been a while since we were down there so it will be cool to play again. We have a couple more in the pipeline that will beannounced soon..but the ironworks will be the only time to catch us in the highlands for a wee while.
· Have you got any festivals lined-up this summer?
Sadly no festivals this summer but theres always next year!
· Have you got any plans for releasing or recording an EP or album?
Its something we are thinking about..but wether it would be a single or an ep we will have to wait and see.
· Where can people find your music?
People can find our music on soundcloud/theragazzi or on slice of fried gold on abc radio, we have a few live videos on youtube or just come and see us live..we sound better live.
