Charging into the summer with slots at a host of top festivals, Darwin Deez rocks up at mFEST on Friday 30 July with Hadouken!, New Young Pony Club and Unicorn Kid.
We spoke with Darwin and this is what he said....
1. Good afternoon Mr Deez. Where are you today and what are you doing?
hi, thank you it's morning actually! i've been waking up early this week. really early.. like at 3:30 am sometimes. jet laggage! i'm checking my email at my parents' house. enjoying the weather down here in North Carolina this week. It's nice to get out of New York City for a while.
2.You were selected by the festival young programming team - have you noticed a lot of U18s at your UK shows and why do you think the kids love your music so much?
you better believe i'm looking forward to mFEST. tell those young hot-shot programmers "Thank You!" with proper caps and everything. we do attract a young crowd, yes. i think the kids like it because it's fast. and it's pop and it's fun.
3. 'Radar Detector' has been something of an Indie Disco dance floor filler in Scotland. Tell us a bit about the song?
cool! it's a love song about driving around and doing fun things with a very caring, protective girl.
4. A member of the mFEST team caught your last show at King Tuts - without letting the cat out the bag, tell us about your pre show routine!!
we drink each other's urine and slap each other's bums. no, just kidding, we do the same the killers do: put our hands in the middle and freeform a sexy skit from busta rhymes' debut. although the killers don't riff on that same skit. or any busta rhymes skit.
5. Stirling has great a history - one William Wallace triumphed over the English army in 1297 not far from where you will perform. What do you know about Scotland?
not much, but i like the accent. "So I Married an Axe Murderer" is basically all i know about Scotland. "HEEEEAD!"
Here's Darwin in action...
