Q & A: Pandas and People


Ahead of next week’s show with Gardens and Villa, we asked Pandas and People to answer a few questions……..

Would you rather be a Panda or a Person? 

Definitely a Person.

What would be on your dream band rider ? 

SOUL FOOD!!! Also Steaks, Cans of Cherry flavoured Nourishment and assorted energy drinks.

What band (Living or Dead) that would you most like to support  ? 

Collectively our fave band is The Dismemberment Plan so probably them!

Favourite city ? 

We have a soft spot for Brum as our home city but we also really like Liverpool – we spent 3 weeks living there when making our debut album ‘Grab Everything’. It’s a really nice City with lots going on and a good music scene.

Favourite venue ? 

HARE & HOUNDS, Kings Heath.

Favourite local bands? 

We really dig:
Calories
Johnny Foreigner
Victories at Sea
VS
James Rea
Favourite youtube? 

Top 5 Albums at the moment  ?

Pinback – Autumn of the Seraphs
Hot Snakes – Suicide Invoice
Smashing Pumpkins – Mellon Collie…

CALORIES – Basic Nature

Here at This is Tmrw HQ there’s one band in particular we’ve had much love for since day one, not just because 2009’s debut album Adventuring was so so good and a regular hogger of the CD player but primarily because they’re truly local mortal boys, they’re almost in a way part of the family – we are of course talking about CALORIES (http://www.myspace.com/caloriesband) and on the 13 September 2010 they’ll be releasing their hotly anticipated sophomore album ‘Basic Nature’ on Tough Love Records.

At 14 tracks this album see’s the band mix the more out and out lo-fi pop highlights that made Adventuring so accessible with songs like “You Can Be Honest” and new single “Ffwd” whilst also grappling with more softer lo-fi moments on tracks such as “The Offer” which point to a maturing variety to the band’s approach. It’s a genuinely solid follow up to a strong debut and no doubt a sure fire future hogger of the stereo again!

The album will be released as a CD / 12” combo along with a download code and it’s at a bargain price, so go buy it!
