Hello, Axixic. Your latest album is Dancing On The Moon. What significance does the title hold for you? It’s a metaphor that I carried around for years to describe two contradictory ideas: living in the moment -or- doing one thing when you really should be doing something else. When I came to Mexico to write and record the album it seemed to describe what I was doing so I decided…
Hello. Your latest EP is Silence is Golden. What significance does the title hold for you? For the majority of my life, I’ve been considered the “quiet one”. I only like to speak if I truly feel I have something to say and contribute to the conversation. For whatever reason, people sometimes hold that against me. The title of the album comes from the idea that my greatest achievements have…
What’s the story about Dandy John? I try to express himself in my very own way, politically not only interested in Swiss Banks, cheese, watches or mountains, but more in general global problems of society such as the ideal of beauty, war, food, ethics, loneliness, literature (I’ve studied English and German Literature – so be happy to find Goethe, Schiller, Shakespeare, Byron and so on in my work). I live…

Let’s look at the elephant in the room – why Fried Goat? Our first bass player was from Bulgaria and he was telling us all the different foods that are popular there. Just about every other dish was some kind of goat. I’m not sure frying goat is one of the more popular ways to prepare it but it should be. Everything tastes better fried.

Q. The Greenman is your latest album. What does the disc add to the story that is Salt? A. The Greenman attempts to provide an insightful 5-track EP that provides listeners with a glimpse of the diversity of song-writing and sounds that the band have been working on over the past year. However, it is only a scratch on the surface of the material that is coming out of the…

Promises is your debut album. How happy are you with the title? What is your favorite songs off of the album? I’m very happy with the title because it’s the Anthem of my life right now. Many promises that have been put inside of me are finally being fulfilled, and This new Lo-Fi Limo record was one of those! The whole album is an expression of the Highs and Low’s…
We’re sitting down with Vinyl Floor. What has the band been doing this last year? Charlie: Well, actually the ‘Vaudeville’ recordings took up some of the first months of 2014. We did nearly all of the vocals right after New Year and spent time on overdubs and other additional recordings. The album was mastered and completed in May. Then we took the summer off since we had been recording for…

Broken Hearted Whispers is a song written at a time when there were a few people around me going through tough times with relationships (divorce/break ups etc) pretty much at the same time. The song reflects my interpretation of some of these relationships and eventually pushes for the positives. It also…
Like I Do is perhaps your best-known single. What does it contribute to your story as an artist and a performer? I think “Like I Do” is a fun type of song. It helped showcase a part of my personality that was a bit cheeky, a bit confident…it’s definitely an epically fun one to perform. It sets the tone for the audience to expect to hear something a little different…
I Will Take You There is a high-energy piece of rock that blends together Lynyrd Skynyrd, Tom Petty, and Warren Zevon. The band is able to create a cohesive sound that sets the stage for the rest of the tracks on their latest album, Sweet Mystery. Right Amount of Drunk is a country-infused track that keeps the same high momentum of the previous cuts on Sweet Mystery, while the act…
