Can you tell us something about the album nobody knows about?

A lot of the vocals were recorded in the same room where MJ recorded BAD.

How has the release of Fake Nice gone so far?

So good. We have been so overwhelmed with the positive response. We’ve been able to play it on tour the past couple of days and it has been so fun to see people dancing and singing it.



If you could work with any band on a new song, who would it be and why?

Probably Paramore. We have been inspired by so many musicians but Paramore was a band that inspired us to play music really young. We would cover their songs and try to write songs similar to theirs when we were 12.
