Trash Q&A

Your name:
Tom Barton.

Where are you from? 
Chesterfield, UK – a place too commonly referred to as ‘near Sheffield’. 

Name of band: 
Trash.

Who else is in your band?
Daniel Longmore, Evan Martin and Brad Weston.

How would you describe yourselves? 
Kinda surfy music for people who have never been surfing. We try to experiment and add something new and colourful to the indie genre. 

Who are your main influences musically? 
One of us likes McBusted, one of us likes Psyopus. That should sum it up. 

What do you hope to achieve in music? 
If we had a cult following, we would be in a life of absolute beatitude. 

What has been the highlight of your career so far, and why? 
Actually having some recorded material we can say is our own. And Brad’s lyric attempt, of course (‘times are gonna change, high school is ending.’ Yes, he said this.) 

And what’s the moment you want to forget? 
None yet, but our debut gig is yet to come... 

If you had to pick just one of your songs to represent your music, what would it be and why? 
Fountain Roulette – it’s the first properly recorded song we did, and marks where we began to find our style. We all created parts around Dan’s structure and ended up very pleased with it. The experience, both writing and practising, was very enjoyable. 

Where can we listen to it? 


Where can we find out more about your music?

Anything else you’d like to say that I forgot to ask? 
We are still a small band hoping for as much experience as the world can give us, so if you anybody wants us for a show, interview, lap dance, anything, please do hit us up. We’re lonely people. Also Evan’s looking for a copy of Ratchet & Clank for PS3.
