PROFILE: Smith St. Band

Off The Leash spoke to drummer Chris Cowburn. 

What was the first concert you ever went to?
My parents took me and my brother to see John Farnham when I was about seven. I remember it being in a big stadium and us being sat somewhere up in the bleachers. Can't remember it having much affect on me musically, that came later.  

What’s your favourite album of all time?
Impossible to answer and is always changing! Tame Impala's Lonerism is up there right now, but that'll change next month I'm sure! 
 
Whose posters did you have stuck to the wall when you were a teenager?
Frenzal rhomb and blink-182!  

Creative writing challenge – describe your sound in three words.
