Interview: Band Of The Week - Throwback Suburbia - Page 4

Part of: Band of the Week

We needed a lead guitar player… then so we started putting out the feelers for a guitar player. So we started thinking of some people and thought of a friend of mine named Brian. But Brian was goin' to school and he was already in a couple of other bands and he said really need to check out my buddy Paul.

He gave us Paul's number and I called Paul and we had a really nice conversation with him. Told him what we were all about. He said he had heard good things. So we dropped off a CD with him had a little chat with him for a while. He did his homework and jammed with us and the synergy was there. That was January of this year since we had our first rehearsal with Paul.

So Throwback Suburbia has been together less than a year?

Yeah! We played our first gig on February third and Paul was only with us for three week8 Tracks Cover before that. So it was really this year that we completed the line-up and played our first show in February. And we have been playing about one or two shows a month. Writing more songs and recording more songs. And now we are about to embark on this production deal with Mark and Tom [The Macchiato Kids mentioned above]. I think we've done a lot in a few short months.

If you would like to listen to Throwback Suburbia's eponymous EP Eight Tracks you can hear it at their MySpace space or their own website. To purchase Eight Tracks you can find it at CDBaby.

    I've seen Throwback Suburbia perform twice and have loved both shows! Gripping performance and awesome music. If you get the chance to see them live, go! In the meanwhile, buy their EP - you're gonna love their music ;)
