The Lowriders

by Bree Hoskin

29 September 2011


The Lowriders have arrived with their brand new single, ‘Who's Gonna Save Your Soul’. The band, consisting of Dave Garlick (vox), Brian Ware (guitar), Adam Parrott (drums) and Jay Chamberlain (bass), were formerly known as Freud, and they have used their previous recording experiences as a creative well to shape the tone of their upcoming album, Fury.

Here, The Lowriders talk about making soul with balls.

Stop or confirm (or start) a rumour about yourself...
Rumour has it that The Lowriders will be the opening act for the new Later with Jools Holland show.

"Dave brings attitude, Brian brings peace, Adam brings reason and Jay brings filth - apart from that, passion, ideas, creativity, tobacco and skins."

Individually, what do each of you bring to The Lowriders?
Dave brings attitude, Brian brings peace, Adam brings reason and Jay brings filth - apart from that, passion, ideas, creativity, tobacco and skins.

Tell us a bit about your single 'Who's Gonna Save Your Soul' - what can we expect?
A message of trepidation towards fame and fortune and the ever-present fascination with celebrity.

 

Is the single representative of your upcoming album Fury as a whole?
Yeah – like the single it conveys messages from the heart, so has soul with balls.

What are you most proud of about the album?
Being at the forefront of every piece of the process, doing it our way, without a huge budget – not just hands on but hands all over it!  Which means it’s a representation of a real band and not an overproduced virtual band.

"We’re a band you have to see live – don’t miss out, get off your arse and go out and watch live music, wherever you can. Without that, we would all be fucked!"

What has the album been like to record?
Tough, hilarious, the best hard work we’ve ever done, a head fuck.

What's in store for the crowd at a gig?
Come find out.

What would be your fantasy gig?
Playing on the same bill as the best live bands of all time.

 

Finish the sentence: A good night out starts with...
A wank.

It ends with...
A pizza.

It's our round - what are you having?
A pint of Kronie and a cup of tea chaser.

What's the best thing ever invented?
A Roland 1680.

What's the best piece of advice you've ever been given?
Be happy, never do interviews and don’t trust anyone. Oh, and don’t go out without a belt!

Anything to add?
We’re a band you have to see live – don’t miss out, get off your arse and go out and watch live music, wherever you can. Without that, we would all be fucked!


'Who's Gonna Save Your Soul', the new single fom The Lowriders, is released on 3 October on Adrenalin Records. Find out more at www.thelowridersmusic.com
