WAMFest Focus: Sail On! Sail On!

Answered by: Skinny O'Leary — Vocalist, guitarist

Band: Sail On! Sail On!

Give us a short description of your music: Intensely emotional post-hardcore drenched in whiskey and self loathing.

What is the best thing that's happened to you/your band so far? This year we've toured the country for the second time, finished an album and released two singles/videos from it.

Has the party side of the music industry been all you were hoping for so far in your career? The beer tab runs out too quickly, but the party side of the industry is great. It's where most new relationships form and where people really learn more about each other as humans.

What industry lessons would you like to take away from WAMFest? How to make people open my press releases. I mean, they're hilarious! They're missing out.

What acts are you looking forward to checking out at WAMFest? Odlaw and Spilt Cities at our triple single launch. Our bands are all good mates so it's just going to be such a good night hanging out with some of my favourite musicians and people.

Why should people come and see you from amongst the many cool bands at WAMFest? Have you ever seen a snake on MDMA caught in a sock, fighting a bull ant army covered in goon and hummus? Imagine that, but as a band.

When and where is your WAMFest gig? 4 Nov, Jimmy's Den
