a rocky path and having to start over from scratch, BIG DEAL dropped their third studio album.. ‘Say Yes’. An album about breaking up, trying to make sense of it all and knocking down the difficulties. Playing at LeeFest The Neverland festival this year. We spoke to Kacey and Alice about The Song That…

Got me into music…

KACEY: U2 – ‘Sunday Bloody Sunday’ – I know it’s cool to hate on them but growing up in Joshua Tree, U2 are just a part of it. Their performance of this song at Red Rocks made me want to do everything I could to make some one feel like I did when I watched it.

Reminds me of my favourite festival…

KACEY: The Strokes – ‘Someday’ – Alice and I watched them headline Reading from the side of the stage, and it was one of the best nights of my life

ALICE: I’ve got to agree with Kacey. When we played Reading, The Strokes were my all-time favourite band and I remember us screaming out the lyrics to ‘Someday’ with huge smiles on our faces. I don’t believe in God but that’s possibly the closest to a spiritual experience I’ve ever had.

I love this year so far…

ALICE: Inheaven – ‘Regeneration’ – The best rock anthem I’ve heard in a while. Also one of the best looking bands you’re likely to see this year.

I want played at my funeral…

ALICE: Sybille Baier – ‘Forget About’ – Because I want everyone to weep! Just kidding. Because it’s a song about the impact a wonderful person or people can have on your life and that’s what I’d like to tell all my loved ones when I die.

I would play in a set to impress…

KACEY: Prince – ‘Controversy’ – To impress Prince, though from the stories you hear that wouldn’t impress him much. All I’d really want is to provoke him into a game of basketball. Next time

Always gets me up and dancing…

KACEY: Earth Wind and Fire – ‘September’ – 2016 has been a reminder of how we are all here for a blink of an eye so we may as well dance. My mom really loves this band too, so it reminds me of her.

Sums me up…

ALICE: Broken Social Scene – ‘Swimmers’ – According to my best friend Tilly (of the amazing band Lazy Day), ‘Swimmers’ by Broken Social Scene sums me up because it’s about someone who is always late but you love them any way, so I’m still taking it as a compliment and though I don’t want to admit it ‘If you always get up late, you’ll never be on time’ definitely sums me up.
