YOUR DREAM COAT: INTERVIEW

 

Can you talk about how you came together and started playing music?

 

We were all independently very sad. Alain and Paige met through their friend Isaac of The Due Diligence and formed a duo. At their debut show at Silent Barn, they played with High and Fragile, of which Miguel was then a member. The rest is herstory. Next question. 

 

Your music has a diverse sound. Can you talk a little bit about your influences?

 

We sound like the Smiths, but we pretend we don’t. The Smiths were influenced by David Bowie, New York Dolls, the Birds, and David Byrne. The rest is herstory. Next question.

 

What is the songwriting process in Your Dream Coat like?

 

3 lbs anxiety.

40 minutes of handwringing at a moderate pace.

Heat oven to 450 degrees.

Ask, “Does this sound too much like the Smiths?”

The rest is herstory.

17 group texts.

Send Miguel to his room. 

Next question.
