10 Questions - Streetlight Fire
Who are you and what do you do in the band?
J: I'm Josh, and I play guitar and sing.
S: I’m Steven, and I play bass.
K: I am Keaton. I play lead guitar and sing.
How was the band formed?
J: Our original drummer, Jeff, and I used to spend our weekends playing Tony Hawk Pro Skater and playing Starting Line covers in my garage. The Tony Hawk games started to suck, so we quit that and kept playing music. Keaton and Steven then joined the band in hopes we were still playing Tony Hawk.
How would you describe the band's music?
K: I would describe it as an orgy of everything we heard that day. I also would like to think we sound like the result of The Dangerous Summer and Transit hanging out a lot.
If someone has never listened to your band, which song would you like them to listen to first?
S: I would definitely tell them to listen to Prospect Park. It’s my favorite song on the album and a great listen for sure.
What is the writing process like?
J: Keaton or I usually write little pieces of songs (melodies, lyrics, chord progressions) in our own time. We get together regularly during the week to expand upon those ideas and spend the rest of the night demoing those songs out. We then present the demos to the rest of the dudes, who then essentially cut the fat out.
Which Reality TV show would you like to be on?
K: I honestly don’t what reality shows exist at the moment to even answer that question. I think if I created my own, though, it would take place in space.
What bands do you believe deserve more credit/exposure?
J: Absolutely The American Scene and From Indian Lakes. Those two bands need to get huge or else there is not justice in the world.
Do you have any pre-show rituals?
S: I like to slap the back of my head to get my head in the game.
What are the band's plans for the year?
K: At the moment I would say our goal is to travel around a bit and get out name out as much as possible, write a lot, and hopefully put out some awesome music.
What is your ultimate goal for the band?
S: I want to help this band grow to reach it’s full potential musically.
K: My personal ultimate goal for the band is to be able to play music and have it support me completely.
J: My ultimate goal for us is to be the biggest band in the world.Â
