What inspires your music writing? Our music is inspired by our changing lives – living in London away from our parents. It’s been hard going but makes meaningful lyrics. Also, we’re inspired by the music we listen to – mainly artists like Ben Howard and Damien Rice. What do you prefer – a small intimate gig or a big concert show? There’s positives and negatives to them both. You don’t get the intimacy with an arena or festival show but you do get to showcase your music on a big scale. It’s easier to create an atmosphere and make a connection when fans are close too.
What are your plans for Christmas? This year will be the first time we’re not going home. But straight after Christmas we’ll be going to New Orleans to perform at a cousins wedding. What do you have planned for 2015? We’re back touring in February which we’re really excited for. Tickets are selling really fast. And we’re currently working on the release of our debut album – Singing For Strangers – released in February. @HudsonTaylor
