MINI BAND INTERVIEW

I asked Gavin, the lead singer of the band a few questions about their inspirations behind the song I am creating the music video for...
1. What/who are your band's main influences?

'Duran Duran, Test Icicles, Arctic Monkeys, Cut Copy and The Rapture.'



2. What inspired the song Electric Shocks?

'Electric Shocks is about avoiding the humdrum of everyday life by going out to get crazy with your mates. It's meant to convey a sense of gang mentality and building excitement on Friday night!'

3. Are there any themes you would like me to convey in the video? (e.g. love)
 'The themes you should convey in the video are really solidarity between friends and  resistance against 'normal'    wetherspoons dwelling office types - that's a life we want to avoid.    Think about walking through the city with no particular night out in mind and experiencing unexpected things as a group not attending a packed out Syndicate or some other stereotypical teen hangout. '
