Poison Oak stopped by to speak with us!

How did the band come to be?
The band came about just from jamming on Saturday morning between, Russell, myself and Ray. Slowly it progressed, we started to get some songs together, and we’ve picking up steam ever since. 

Do you have any releases coming up this year?
We released our second our EP “1996” this year in March. However, we’ve just been studio we’ve producer Mark Myers getting some more songs down, that we’re super excited. One of them will be a single that we will release this year. 

What is something you want listeners to take away from your music?
In the end, I just hope they relate etc, and get some enjoyment from it. 

With everything that is going on in our world what is one cause or organization that you are passionate about?
The ABC (Australia) ;).

What is your writing process like?
We don’t really have a process, Ray will come in with an idea or riff, and I’ll add some lyrics and figure out melodies. Or I might come in a completed song form. 

To follow up with the last question, what inspires your sound?
We have a wide range of influences going from, The Cure, Violvent Soho, Powderfinger, Silversun Pickups and pop punk hero’s Green Day.
