people from an outside perspective would like to think that being in a band is a very fluid experience, it’s really quite the opposite. They challenge themselves to combat the push and pull of what feels creatively right and how that will translate to the fans live and on a recording. “That’s the nature of New Beat Fund. We always want to keep people on their toes,” Paul said. “Just when they think they can pinpoint us, we throw them a curveball.” In all of the highs of being in an up-and-coming band, there are always the necessary evils that come along with it. Paul
said that he’s a moody and emotional person. Being away from loved ones puts a strain on relationships. But no matter how low they get, New Beat Fund have each other. “We’re peace loving funky brothers at the end of the day,” Paul said. “We try to surround ourselves with people we love, and the truth is a lot of them will come and go, but we always have the core of the four of us.” PHOTOS: Charlie Martel | INTERVIEW & STORY: Alyssa Schmidt
