Featured Artist: Platinum Weird - The Interview - Page 5

Part of: Featured Artist

And we started identifying and contacting people about and filling in all the gaps. We virtually had to stop it from being a feature film about Erin Grace so…

Did she ever exist?

Dave: Well she did you know… but her name wasn’t Erin Grace, obviously, we changed it.

And then it was kind of interesting because everything the film was about was about Kara really and leading towards Kara. Song wise and everything, was about that lost spirit that gets regained.

How did you feel about that Kara?

Kara: At first I was a little bit like reluctant about the whole thing. But I loved it. Dave always talks me around. Being in the film, in the public arena.

Does losing you anonymity worry you?


Kara: Yeah… yeah I know, but I’m not going to be really out there. I hope that we will be very successful and if we are, I guess that’s part of it.

Platinum Weird’s debut album will be out on September 19th in the US and sometime in early January in the UK and Europe. To check out Platinum Weird’s very cool, retro, indie rock sound right now, you can visit their MySpace site.
