If you were making a mix for our readers, what would be the first three songs you’d select?
Well, I would say that they should check out “Don’t Leave Me Blue” by none other than the Blue Van;)

Other than that 3 songs could be:

The Black Keys – Your Touch
The Divine Comedy – Lady of a Certain Age
Girl Friday – Apple Lime Ginger(unsigned artist, can be found on myspace)

Name any musical influence(s)?
The Small Faces, The Kinks, Otis Redding, Sam Cooke, The Rascals…

What new music are you currently listening to?
The Divine Comedy’s new album “Victory for the Comic Muse”, Dr.Dog, Little Barrie, Mando Diao, etc.

Name a band (current or defunct) that would be your dream act to open for on a major tour?
Well, The Stones would be an obvious choice. – The list is f**cking long, but if I should choose a couple of old bands, it would be Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac(the one and only), Free…

Who, if anyone, would you like to collaborate with?
Hmm…that’s tough. There are alot of people that we admire and would love to collaborate with – and it had to be some that we all could agree on. Dan from The Black Keys would be fun, our friend Nic Cester from JET would be a blast as well, Smokey Robinson, Aretha Franklin…James Brown would be insane, but it’s a little to late for that;)

Tell us something about you that we can’t find on Google.
Per collected pieces of glass as a child, I(steffen) hate horror movies, Allan enjoys going fishing and Søren secretly sings Alicia Keys in the shower.

Love
