Hardest thing about being in a band?
It’s not just about making good music anymore! The amount of graft around a release and learning about the business side of things really takes its toll. It’s all part of the fun though and enjoyable to learn new things.

Quote you’d like to pass on to our readers?
Value makes the difference.
Reason for the title of your recent/forthcoming release?
Our upcoming single ’S.H.T’ stands for SELF HELP THERAPY. The song is a battle within yourself. Questioning your sanity and being sick of the repetitve nature of daily life.
See us live at?
Our next show is Focus Wales Festival in Wrexham on May 5th!
The old days of music were better than the current, do you agree?
I definitely think that the quality of music was better in the old days but that’s down to there being so many more artists/bands in the present. We are spoilt for choice now. There are some truely inspiring modern musicians and it’s even harder to make your music stand out against so much competition. You have to respect the work that they have put in to get where they are.
Unusual merchandise?
Nothing but top quality goods in the IMMERSE merch catalogue.
Variations you’d like to do of any of your songs?
We’ve always talked about recording an acoustic EP one day. Re-working a few of our most popular songs into chilled versions would be a lot of fun.
What do your fans mean to you?
Everything! We couldn’t keep going without their support. The love we recieve at gigs really fuel us to keep creating exciting new music for people enjoy. If we can help people forget about their problems for one night and enjoy our live show then we have done our job! We have received special messages from fans saying how our music has got them through tough times and it really makes us proud.
