Gorgeous Got A Gun Interview:
You are releasing an album soon – Is this your first?
Yes, this is our debut album, it will be released October 13th! We are very excited for this release as we worked really hard on the record which was recorded at The Document Room Studio in Malibu, CA. Veronica and Chris basically drove back and forth from the studio writing and recording the record. The cool thing is now seeing it come to life with a full rock band and taking it and making it raw and in your face at the shows.
What would you like to say to music fans who are checking out GGG for the first time?
We would like to say thank you and we hope you love the album! Our inspiration comes from the thought of helping others get through hard times and to see people enjoying the music is really magical for us!
How would you describe your musical style?
We are really inspired by psychedelic rock bands from the 60’s as well as modern artists from today. Vocally I’ve thought my voice was always unique, not your average female singer. I want to bring back the strong pretty yet grittiness of other female vocalists I’ve known and loved. Our music blends retro sounds with the modern rock sound that is really “today” with synth arrangements, etc. Another important factor is the dance-ability of our music. There are a lot of dance-rock beats in the songs which we all really love.
What are you looking to achieve in 2009?
Our goal was to start a buzz in our hometown of South Bay, CA and we did that! We were featured artist in a lot of the papers, etc. We also sold out every show we played in LA and OC. Further goals include looking ahead and getting out of town. We plan on setting up shows in the midwest and northeast.
Have you ever toured before?
Touring is coming soon! We are ready to sleep in a van!
Who would you love to go on tour with?
We absolutely LOVE the band Metric right now and would be sooo amped on touring with them! They inspire us a lot.
