Below is an email interview with Memphis Nights. All interviews are published unedited.

• How long have you been recording music?

I’ve been a songwriter/composer for 15 years and recording for 10 years.I started recording in a van on cheap analogue cassettes and racked up about 350 recordings.

• Do you ever play live or are you predominantly studio based?

From 1997 until about 2003 In Australia I started and fronted a 4 piece band called “The Swamp Cats”. We toured a lot and in 2003 I went solo to work on the original material. Now I am in Europe and with a new band “Presidents Without Countries”. We have recorded our first LP and are set to start touring.

• How would you describe your music and what has been your biggest influence?

The Band material is straight out energetic bar rock. We like to light fires where ever we play. Memphis Nights music dives a little more into cinematic emotive sounds. A little Dance…A little deep and of course there are the rock ones. These tracks are geared more for the marked and radio and I like to record with full sounds including strings, samples and keyboards…..things are are lacking in today’s low income/small band outfits.

• Have you any exciting plans for the near future?

Memphis Nights will have a new LP out. As a solo Project it sill predominately feature online and thu internet stores. The band side of things have just completed the demo and will be set to tour Europe this year

• What song are you most proud of?

I think “Comin’ Home” for it’s simple driving beat and vocals.
“Beer Garden” will always have a special place with me due to it’s production and hooks.
And “Off My Mind”…..I love that ballad.
