4:03 Speaker 7: That is so good? Brand new from Soda. The band is It's spelled s O T A h and that is called Sunrise World Radio premiere today on Matt Connorton Unleashed, as we have entered our number three new maeral trace. If I sound a little nervous, I apologize in advance. But well it'll all it'll all make sense in a moment. But let me get these let me get these mics up here. I'm not often Uh well, let me get the camera onto on on Casey, Casey Darren here because uh, you look a little bit different than the last time I saw you, and you appear to have gone through some sort of transition.

4:41 Speaker 7: Shall we say if I can use that term? Oh wait, wait a second, I can't. Oh, I see why I apologize. Please don't don't bite me, don't bite my neck.

4:52 Speaker 1: There we go. I've got to say, I've got to be honest. Tier.

4:57 Speaker 7: Yes, this is legitimately terrifying.

5:00 Speaker 1: You can hear me now out in the space waves, we can.

5:03 Speaker 7: We can hear you. There's no need to do anything anything rash.

5:06 Speaker 1: Well, yes, since the last time that I was here in the studio, you you see, I did go through some major changes. The whole band did. Yes, yes, you know we are in the studio for months on end up in rural Maine, and very few people know this, but in Maine there's actually a large community of vampires. We got to meet them, we got to go into their camp, and after some a few days in Maine, we actually became vampires. You see, we got bit in and we are now undead and this is something that we kind of have to live with.

5:50 Speaker 1: Now.

5:51 Speaker 7: Oh, I'm sorry, Let me go and introduce your partner.

5:55 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, he's never been here before. But this is my younger brother, Killian. He's got a very good vampire name, count Killian. Over here.

6:04 Speaker 7: That is a good vampire name. Yeah, go ahead, Killian.

6:07 Speaker 8: Yeah.

6:07 Speaker 9: The thing is the rest of the band, We're all fine. He's the only one choosing to dress up this way, and.

6:14 Speaker 1: That's not true when you turn into a vampire. This is what happens.

6:18 Speaker 9: It's not the it's not his dress. It's the only thing he's been acting different.

6:22 Speaker 7: Uh huh.

6:23 Speaker 9: Last night he had a garlic knot and he's crying in the bathroom for like an hour.

6:28 Speaker 7: Well I can see how that would be upsetting in a sense. Wow. Okay, so so you but you have also Killian. You are also a vampire now, Yes, because you are kind of pale. I'm usually the most pale person in the room, but you do have you have very light skin. Sir.

6:44 Speaker 1: It's probably just the Irish blood in him.

6:46 Speaker 7: Oh okay, I see, I see Wow, Well is still Irish blood? I mean he's a vampire. Now, well, how does that work?

6:53 Speaker 1: You know, we we still got we have were many different types of blood in us.

6:59 Speaker 7: Well I can imagine.

7:00 Speaker 1: Yes, just you know, the nature of being a vampire, we do partake in the delicious offerings of blood. So yes, he's got the little Irish blood in him. He met a man named Patrick o'hannagan last week. That's where that comes from.

7:17 Speaker 7: So I see, now that makes sense. What is it about Maine? Should should people not go to Maine? You know, we've had guests here on the show who are musicians from the state of Maine, And now I'm concerned I may have put myself in Jenny in danger. Could they have been vampires and we didn't know it as the entire state of Maine vampires? I mean, what what's the situation?

7:36 Speaker 1: And no, it's it's very locked up. It's a locked up community. We actually happened to just stumble upon it, you know, being up in the studio. It's just one of those things that kind of happened. Not many people know about it, but we stumbled upon it and now here we are today. So you don't have to worry. Okay, But you know, if you do smell something a little funky, just you know, don't towards it, because that's what Killian did. And now look at us now.

8:03 Speaker 7: Oh okay, So since Killian's fault, I would say, I would say, okay, any any misconceptions. I mean, you you guys are out in the daylight to come here. I mean, how does that work?

8:14 Speaker 1: Well, we were packaged in a cardboard box on the way here, we were driven in. I've actually we've been up since eight o'clock last night. So where we are giving you some extra daylight hours today being here. We are very tired. We are you know, it has been difficult, but we are here and we are happy to be here.

8:35 Speaker 7: And I assume you were SPF one hundred sunscreen in this situation.

8:39 Speaker 1: The situation like this, Yes, it was a little nerve wracking coming into the studio. Yes, being transported out of the cardboard box and into the studio was a little nerve racking. So yes, we did leather up this morning, that is true.

8:52 Speaker 7: Okay, No, that makes sense, that makes sense. We want you to be want you to be healthy. Now, So how does this relate? Like, did the song and the video come about? I mean, obviously the video came about post transformation? What about the song Sunrise?

9:08 Speaker 1: I wrote the song Sunrise about three years ago. It is a song about just, you know, being in darkness and wanting to find the light and really wishing that you weren't always in darkness. Something about vampires is that we we live much of our life in darkness.

9:26 Speaker 7: Yes.

9:26 Speaker 1: I think many people vampire or not live their life with some darkness in their life. Yes, And I think that the message of the song it was just me trying to express that I wanted to find the light and I knew that there was some light deep within me.

9:41 Speaker 10: Yes.

9:42 Speaker 1: But yes, it was written in pre vampire transformation, and I found that the transfer, the transformation into vampire just worked very well. Oh good it did it? Did? It matched the message of this song very well.

9:56 Speaker 7: Well, that's that's good, very convenient, I would say, yes, Yes, Jenny was saying in the chat room, she woke up with the song in her head this morning. Because it's very, very catchy.

10:05 Speaker 1: We did try to make it a little hypnotic, that is true.

10:08 Speaker 7: Yes, oh yeah, I understand that. Yes, I was tapping along. You probably saw I couldn't couldn't help it. I couldn't help it.

10:14 Speaker 1: That could have been just because I was looking at you.

10:16 Speaker 7: Well, that might be I can do that might be as well. And I have to say I'm a little anxious. I mean, you know, you tell me I'm not in any danger. But you know, I've never had a vampire on the show before. Vampires.

10:28 Speaker 1: If we get hungry, Killian will be but the first to dive in, so I will try to hold him back. Killian is feisty.

10:34 Speaker 7: I appreciate that. I appreciate that. Yes, yes, now, Killian. What what's your role on the on the track or on the band?

10:41 Speaker 1: I play a bass and backup vocals.

10:45 Speaker 7: Okay, okay, very good. Now are you are you a permanent member of Soda?

10:49 Speaker 1: I am a permanent member.

10:51 Speaker 7: Excellent, excellent, Okay, So, because this is I know this is your first time on the show with us, but obviously you know we've been playing your music for a few years. You know case he's been on you know, Vampiric Era. It has been on the show a bunch of times. But yeah, so it's great to finally meet you. I mean, I hope you don't, you know, buy my neck. But it's wonderful to meet you finally.

11:11 Speaker 1: Nice to be you too.

11:12 Speaker 7: Yes, yes, and the whole band is Vampires.

11:14 Speaker 1: Now we've all done in the Vampires. The other two they were too afraid to come out in the daylight. I had to convince my younger brother to be here, and he is happy to be here. I have to say. He's a wonderful bass player, as you see in the music that you actually learned how to play the upright bass. Yes, he is phenomenal. He's a great musician, and it is an honor to have him in the band. He's been in the band from the very beginning. Yes, this Sunrise is actually the first track that he recorded bass on, which is it's very cool if you listen to the bass lines.

11:45 Speaker 1: He did a very good job, oh yeah, recording his lines.

11:48 Speaker 7: Oh I noticed. Yeah, I'm a bass player myself, so I noticed that. So in the video, you're you're playing an upright bas is that do you do you actually play an upright bass?

11:57 Speaker 9: In high school, I played in orchestra, so I played a little bit of upright but it's not my main Yeah.

12:02 Speaker 7: Yeah, I've always I've always been kind of fascinated, but I've never even attempted to play an up upright base. But it looks awkward. It looks very awkward to me. Yeah, it's some time to learn them. I'm sure.

12:14 Speaker 1: Very cool.

12:15 Speaker 7: Now is this?

12:16 Speaker 1: Uh?

12:17 Speaker 7: Is this track part of an album or is it just a single?

12:19 Speaker 1: Or but it is a standalone single. We do have more tracks coming, but they are also different in nature that we we didn't think that they fit together in a cohesive EP or LP formats. Yes, this is a stand alone single.

12:35 Speaker 7: Okay, okay, very good, very good. Now what what else? What are you? Oh? No, do vampires get sick? How does that work?

12:42 Speaker 1: Is not?

12:44 Speaker 7: Is it allergies?

12:44 Speaker 1: With the blood in the back of my throat, this gravelly voice? It does great on my vocal cords.

12:50 Speaker 7: Oh, I see, I didn't know if it was. You know, there's a lot of pollen. I didn't know if vampires are susceptible to allergies.

12:56 Speaker 1: No, sir, no, sir, it is this This is a side effect of having this new gravelly voice.

13:01 Speaker 7: I see. Do vampires have allergies at all?

13:04 Speaker 1: We can, Okay, we do. We are allergic to garlic. We are allergic to silver. We don't like silver. No, so if there is any silver jewelry in this room, please we ask you to kind of take it off.

13:16 Speaker 7: I can't wear jewelry. I'm allergic. That's interesting.

13:19 Speaker 1: Yeah, actually you're did you just say you are allergic to silver?

13:23 Speaker 7: Yeah?

13:23 Speaker 1: Is there something we do not know about you?

13:26 Speaker 7: I can't why I've never been able to wear a silver jewelry. I am allergic to me.

13:30 Speaker 1: Interesting. I suspect that you might have some sort of vampire lineage in your family somewhere down the lines.

13:37 Speaker 7: Possible. I mean I am quite pale.

13:39 Speaker 1: Well that that could just be the other lineage, but we won't talk about it.

13:43 Speaker 7: I mean, if you ever seen me with a tan, it's fake.

13:46 Speaker 1: U spray tan.

13:47 Speaker 7: I rubbed some stuff in make me a little less pale.

13:49 Speaker 1: I was thinking about doing that, but I broke out, so I had to. I had to stop.

13:54 Speaker 7: I can see where that would be that would be a problem. Yes, yes, So this just came out yesterday.

14:00 Speaker 1: Yes, yesterday, on Friday the thirteen. How fortuitous it worked out perfectly.

14:07 Speaker 7: I must say yes, yes, And where did you shoot the video? I'm really curious about the video, Killian.

14:13 Speaker 1: Why don't you tell Matt Connorton where we shot the video.

14:17 Speaker 9: We went to a castle in Wyndham, New Hampshire.

14:21 Speaker 7: Okay.

14:22 Speaker 9: We also went to a chapel and then we filmed some of the dream sequence you'll see.

14:27 Speaker 1: We went to Hampton Beach.

14:29 Speaker 7: Okay.

14:29 Speaker 9: We got a lot of looks.

14:30 Speaker 1: Definitely.

14:31 Speaker 7: Oh, I can imagine. Yeah. Yeah.

14:33 Speaker 1: The Hampton Beach goers do not take kindly to vampires. They are more of a Jersey short type of crowd, and they do not like the vampires.

14:42 Speaker 7: What do you think it is? You think they're just afraid you're gonna like go into the water and bite them or something or what.

14:46 Speaker 1: I think they're judgmental, Matt. I think that they are very judgmental to our kind, and I do not appreciate it.

14:53 Speaker 7: I don't blame you. I wouldn't appreciate that either. Wow, Okay, I mean I have kind of a similar thing if I go to the beach and go on to the but that's more just because I have body hair.

15:02 Speaker 1: Oh, tell you about body air. I might be part wear a wolf as well, because I have got a thick coat of for on my chest.

15:10 Speaker 7: Well that makes you a double threat, I would say, so yeah, wow, wow how about you, Killian, Are you also potentially a werewolf?

15:19 Speaker 9: Not as far as I know. I also, we didn't, we didn't develop an accent. When you get bit, you just turn into a vampire. But you don't actually have to talk. This is just something that he's taken too seriously.

15:32 Speaker 1: I don't think that. I don't think that is the case. I am a vampire. This is what vampires do. We all know that this is what happened when you get bitten. Well, I think, so.

15:43 Speaker 7: Are you. I feel like you're you're being a little judgmental of Killian, like because he's not. He's not embracing his new identity as you are.

15:51 Speaker 1: This is not an identity. This is who I am. This is just what happened. And I don't understand. He's over here and he's pretending like this is not something I this cloak. It just appeared on me. One day. He says that I'm choosing the way this That is not true.

16:06 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, well, perhaps it'll just appear on him. I mean, perhaps he's perhaps it takes longer with something with others to become fully vampiric. If that is a word, I think it is saying.

16:17 Speaker 1: That I'm sorry. You have to stop saying that I am not the vampire.

16:21 Speaker 7: Oh, be careful, they're they're you. Uh you know, I mean, people are going to start to wonder if you're really a vampire.

16:28 Speaker 1: You keep I am a vampire. I understand the vampire, Matt, I understand me angry.

16:33 Speaker 7: I know I could feel you reading my thoughts earlier. The empires can do that.

16:37 Speaker 1: Yes, some of those we are not allowed to repeat.

16:39 Speaker 7: There, you know again, just very fearful. But uh no, I mind my p's and q's. So uh let's see. So, for those who don't know the band, where does the name come from? I know we've talked about it before, but for the uninitiated.

16:52 Speaker 1: Yes, for the for these news Sota listeners, our name comes from the story of the poison water. Okay, so back in old ancient times, if you were if you were thought to have committed adultery against your significant other, m you would go to the trial of poison water, and if you drank the poison water and you died, you were an adulterer.

17:15 Speaker 7: Seems like an oe situation.

17:16 Speaker 1: Well, if you did drink the poison water and you survived, you were not an adulterer. Very few survived, so there were a lot of these people that they dubbed Sota. Sota is a person who was an adulterer, and it was the trial of poison water. Sota is the trial of poison water.

17:34 Speaker 7: Oh, I see, yeah, I see.

17:36 Speaker 1: And I just guess that at the time when I made the band, it fell into place. We wrote the song Sota, and I had the phrase in my head. Maybe there was some vampire quality in me back then as well, because I heard the phrase poison the water, poison the water, and I loved that phrase. So I wrote a song around that, and then I looked it up on Google. Yes, vampires do use Google, but back then I was not a vampire. Any Ways, beside the point, I looked it up on Google, poison the Water, and then I saw Saulta, and I said, Solta is a beautiful name.

18:06 Speaker 1: Yes, And I looked up on Spotify and there was no Suta. So I said, that is our name.

18:11 Speaker 7: Okay, Oh, very good, very good.

18:14 Speaker 1: If you don't any kind of like.

18:16 Speaker 7: You know, you mentioned you might have like maybe have some vampiric lineage of have you done like twenty three and me or anything like that.

18:22 Speaker 1: I have not done twenty three in me yet? Have you done that? Killian? I not Yeah, I've looked on ancestry, but no, we're from where where do we come from?

18:31 Speaker 9: We come from Londonderry in Hampshire certainly not Transylvania.

18:35 Speaker 7: Are you sure?

18:37 Speaker 1: Okay? Just because I come from just because I come from London there, it doesn't mean that I don't. I don't talk like this. I am getting very irritated with my younger brother.

18:47 Speaker 7: Yes, I can see that. I can see that. Well I would have say, you know too, just because you're from Londonderry, it doesn't mean you couldn't have visited Maine and become a vampire.

18:58 Speaker 1: Well, you know, Killian is a lot of opinions will leave it at that.

19:02 Speaker 7: I mean because if you think about it, if you're in New Hampshire, the odds of you of even visiting Maine are much higher than say, if you were in Transylvania. If you were from Transylvania, you'd probably never go to Maine. So it's true.

19:14 Speaker 1: It's true. I don't know. I think the people up in Maine that we met, I do think that they came from Transylvania. But in the olden times. I see in olden times, and they do live in the shadows, you know, they live in the woods, they live in the caves. Yes, I don't know why we ventured that way out there. Again, I'd like to blame it on Killian.

19:31 Speaker 7: Now as your transformation or apotheosis, I'm not even sure what the right term for this is, so forgive me. Does this affect how you perform on stage?

19:41 Speaker 1: Funny enough? No, When I sing, I sing completely normal, and when I talk on stage, this all goes away. And in fact, let me tell you so much that when I perform on stage, for some reason, the cloak disappears, and then I'm back into my plaid suits with my fun ties. I don't know what happens. It just seems to me that I only turn into a vampire and promotional appearances. Okay, I do not under quite understand what that is all about, but take that for what you will.

20:09 Speaker 7: But that saves your time on wardrobe changes, right, because if things disappear and disappear. You don't have to, like, you know, get into anything.

20:16 Speaker 1: It makes it for you. It makes for less confusion on stage for sure. I do not have to explain to the audience that no, we are not a ghost to rip off, we are not a ghost cover band, because they it just disappears as I appear on stage. So it works out very well. It's only in appearances like this with you, Matt Connorton, that I turn into a vampire. Wow, I can't explain, explain.

20:40 Speaker 7: Getting very I think I'm having a panic attack, to be honest with you. Maybe now's a good time to play a song. You want to play a song you.

20:47 Speaker 1: Love, to play you a song. And it's funny that you brought up the name of Sota, because I think that that would be a wonderful song for us to play for your audience today.

20:56 Speaker 7: Oh, okay, okay, wonderful. Let's see. So we've got that guitar plugged in. Let's see if I got a level on that. Oh that sounds nice. Guitar sounds great and killy. And do you sing also or do you do you only play?

21:13 Speaker 9: I do some background vocals in some of our songs. Okay, and I sing outside of it.

21:18 Speaker 7: But oh, excellent, excellent. Well I think this is uh. I think we're ready dying to hear you. I don't mean, I didn't mean to put it that way. I'm eager to hear you.

21:28 Speaker 1: Guys. I'm dying.

21:30 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, No, I'm not dying too, but we're dying right. No, Well you're you're dead or you're undead. I don't know. I don't know how this works.

21:38 Speaker 1: It's okay, you neither do I yeah.

21:40 Speaker 7: Okay, well this is new to you. Very good. So yeah, guys, I'm I'm anxious to hear you play live all right.

21:47 Speaker 1: Let we'll drop the voice and we will play you a song. This is a song called Sota by a band called Sota.

21:53 Speaker 11: All Right, A weblize can be hard to keep track of.

22:11 Speaker 1: You're in your head and you spending your fortune.

22:14 Speaker 12: It's not enough to know you've got them mal tricked. You're tangled up, ben It makes them so sick. One step and you've lost your footing and now you don't even know who you're hurting. It could be them, it could be you. What does your heart tell you to do? Your poison the water, poison the water.

22:37 Speaker 1: But I'll be by Hide.

22:40 Speaker 13: You poison the water, poison no water. I'll be Bhide.

23:00 Speaker 13: I don't care what you've done to me. I'm just somad. You heard my family leave, and I don't care.

23:07 Speaker 12: If the love was true, I know I've done now like a dude looking back, the water was clean.

23:19 Speaker 7: It all makes sense.

23:20 Speaker 1: Why you deserve and now it's turned the deep.

23:27 Speaker 12: Biz red so red.

23:32 Speaker 2: Da la la.

23:38 Speaker 1: Poison the water, poison the water. I'll be fahine. You poison the water, poison the water.

24:30 Speaker 1: You poison no water, poison the water.

24:35 Speaker 13: Ibbi fa hide, you poison no water, poison no water.

24:48 Speaker 7: Hmmm, sounding great. Soda is here with us alive in studio and great job, guys. That sounded amazing, Thank you so much.

24:56 Speaker 1: Alive and I'm dead at the same time.

24:59 Speaker 7: Yes, I didn't even think of that as I was saying it. Forgive me if I seemed distracted. I was rummaging through my bag, see if I had like an old crucifix in there or something. I thought, I don't get that out of the beer. Well, I'm sorry, I just, you know.

25:12 Speaker 1: Just don't even speak the name of the cruciber Well, sorry, none of that talk.

25:17 Speaker 7: I didn't know, you know, I just, uh, you know. I mean, hopefully you guys can control yourselves. I mean, you know, you're.

25:23 Speaker 1: Trying our best. We are up very late, we are tired, we are getting famished. We'll see if you survive by the end of the scene.

25:31 Speaker 7: So, so, vampires do get tired, so I wasn't trying that.

25:33 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean we we are undead, but we are not that different from humans. Yes, we drink blood. Yes we do not like garlic. But we get tired, right, Killy, and tell them about that time that one time you got so tired you beat the head off of a cow.

25:48 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, tell us about that, Killy, And I am curious.

25:51 Speaker 9: I pulled an all nighter, as vampires do. Yeah, and I was in the morning. We were tired, and the only thing that was around me it was a cow. Yeah, And you know, the end of the story, right, is.

26:05 Speaker 7: That an empire thing or is this just something you do while you're in Maine?

26:08 Speaker 1: Well, we do. I think the mainers they do like cow tipping. We do it a little differently. But I don't know that we want to talk about that on air because it is a little graphic.

26:19 Speaker 7: It sounds grizzly.

26:20 Speaker 1: It is grizzly, that is for certain.

26:24 Speaker 7: Yes, yes, wow, well, very exciting, very exciting. Now are you guys playing a lot of shows? Have you been touring or what's the situation there?

26:31 Speaker 1: We have been quite busy. We have been playing about a show locally per month the past six months.

26:37 Speaker 7: Oh.

26:38 Speaker 1: With the excitement of the release of our song Sunrise, we decided to take a step back. We did not do a show in the month of June. However, we are doing a very exciting release party for the single next month at the Shascine in Chester, New Hampshire.

26:55 Speaker 7: Oh.

26:55 Speaker 1: It is dubbed cute fun Music for cute fun people.

26:59 Speaker 3: Oh.

27:00 Speaker 1: We have got a mix of hardcore punk bands, metal bands us. It is going to be a cute fun time and we are very excited.

27:09 Speaker 7: Oh, very good. What's the that's in July?

27:12 Speaker 1: It is Thursday, July seventeenth. There's five dollars at the door, and so for a cheap time. It is a cheap time and you can have a cheap date with us, Sota, and I promise you we will try not to scare you because I do think, like I said, we probably will not be donned in this attire at that point.

27:31 Speaker 7: Okay, okay, yeah, I don't know if like you need like special zoning for that.

27:36 Speaker 1: If you're the Irish pubs, they do not take kindly to vampires. I'll tell you what. There is a for some reason, a very large Catholic presence in the Irish pubs.

27:46 Speaker 7: Oh see.

27:48 Speaker 1: We try to, you know, subvert that and we try to sneak in and blend in with the crowd.

27:53 Speaker 7: Yes, yes, I completely understand. Now who else is on the show with you? Do you recall off in?

27:58 Speaker 1: Yes, we have Bastard Curse trading tombstones.

28:03 Speaker 7: I love that.

28:04 Speaker 1: Yes they are phenomenal. Yes, and Paint the Town Dead, so it goes very well under dead theme. But like I said, it is all cute fun music.

28:15 Speaker 7: Yes, yes, Paint the Town Dead. That's a cool name.

28:17 Speaker 1: Yes, they're actually they were a band that was formed twenty years ago in our hometown of Londonderry, New Hampshire, and they broke up twenty years ago and for the first time ever, they are actually playing tonight in Londonderry in New Hampshire and they're coming back next month to play with us. Oh, we're very excited. It's the reunion of Paint the Town.

28:37 Speaker 7: Wow after twenty years. The twenty years, that's amazing. Yes, that is amazing. Now do you want to talk it all about what else you've been doing outside of soda?

28:48 Speaker 1: Oh? Sure, sure, yes. My last year was very busy. Before I had gotten turned into a vampire. I was on tour with The Defiant, which is a supergroup of the phenomenal punk musicians. It is Dicky Barrett of the Mighty Mighty Ballstones. We have Greg Camp of smash Mouth, Pete Parratta formerly of The Offspring, Joey Laraka from The Briggs, and did I mention Johnny Rio of Street Dogs Yet? Johnny Rio of Street Dogs a wonderful, really cool punk band. We did a tour last year with me first in the Gimmy gimmeis Oh Okay.

29:24 Speaker 1: In this past December, we went out on a West Coast tour with Social Distortion, and I don't do much for the band. I made some of their music videos, I am their merch guy. I helped them roadying, so it's not like I'm front and center. But I do enjoys my time with the Defiant. They treat me well and it is very fun being in the professional world of music on the road.

29:48 Speaker 7: Yes, that's exciting. Are you. Are you concerned at all like when you when you go out on the road with them in the future, like if you because obviously in terms of in your new forum, I mean what you like what you can eat on the road changes, right.

30:02 Speaker 1: Like you can't have pizza quite often. But I am hoping to find some sort of cure by the end of this promotional cycle of Sunrise. I'm really hoping that that can turn back into my human form.

30:14 Speaker 7: Yeah, because otherwise you'll be out on the road and you'll have to like go, like when everyone else is eating at a restaurant, you go into the woods or something.

30:20 Speaker 1: Try it won't work. It just won't work. So I am really hoping that by some stroke of luck, by the end of the rollout of Sunrise, I will no longer be it won't work for our band. I got to tell you, we have songs that being a vampire, it just it just does not make sense.

30:33 Speaker 5: Yeah.

30:33 Speaker 1: So I am hoping that we can find some sort of remedy for this disease that we have been inflicted you.

30:40 Speaker 7: Oh my goodness, Now what about you, Killian? Did you intend to also seek a cure it? It seems to have affected you quite differently, and by that I mean very little.

30:50 Speaker 9: Yeah, have you it affects me obviously? Obviously I have to stay away from the sun, but yeah I don't. It doesn't affect what I wear or definitely not my voice. Yeah, I would like got the higher strain of it.

31:03 Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, well that can happen.

31:05 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, he doesn't know.

31:07 Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, I mean that can happen. Yeah yeah. So yeah, so so I didn't know that you could even cure this. I didn't think it was like I thought it was like a permanent thing, like once you're a vampire, it's like eternal, right, because don't you live forever?

31:20 Speaker 1: That that that's what they say. But I did hear that from a marketing standpoint, that it does not look too good to be a vampire and a band, especially when you're in a SKA band. So from a marketing standpoint, I'm really hoping that there.

31:34 Speaker 7: Is a yes, yes, Well, I hope you can find something. I mean, you know, the medical technology today is remarkable, it's incredible.

31:40 Speaker 1: I got to tell you some of these doctors that we had back in the eighteen hundreds, they did not do it. But nowadays it is not much better, but it is eighties somewhat better.

31:49 Speaker 7: I just thought of something. Doesn't what about what Keith Richards does, because doesn't he have like a full Maybe this is urban legend, but I've I've heard that he has like a full blood transfusion.

32:00 Speaker 1: He did do a blood transfusion, and we do our morning blood transfusions. It helps us very well, you know, we get the blood of our neighbors and whoever else is in the area.

32:09 Speaker 7: No, I understand, But by transfusion, I don't mean like you know, when you have to feed, I mean like an actual like you know, take all the blood output, new blood in, or however it works.

32:18 Speaker 1: I think I might want to go and have a blood transfusion. Shortly after this interview wraps up, Matt Connort.

32:23 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's what I meant doesn't mean click no, no, no, I meant like a medical procedure.

32:27 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know it's extrectly medical here.

32:30 Speaker 7: I don't you know. I mean there's look. I mean we can't. We can't stay in the studio here with blood. I'll get in trouble.

32:36 Speaker 1: I know these white walls, but I so noticed up on the walls you have these soundproof boards and they are red. So I might take a couple of those. I mean, we do have red carpets, so it might not be as bad as you think. Matt Connor, I can.

32:48 Speaker 7: I mean, I can recommend somewhere you can go to, uh, you know feed.

32:54 Speaker 1: Will you be there?

32:55 Speaker 7: No? I mean, well, we have you know, woods, and I'm sure there's wildlife and maybe an elk or something.

33:01 Speaker 1: We're in the middle of Manchester. This is a city. I don't I don't. I don't know about that. I think I'm I'm getting hungry and I want to feed soon. Well, I don't want to go on the trip into the woods.

33:10 Speaker 7: Well, this is very worrisome. Would you guys like to play another song? Maybe maybe you can, maybe you can say siate yes, maybe maybe calm me down. Perhaps yes, we'd.

33:20 Speaker 1: Like to perform a song for you. This is a cover by a band Ghost. Everyone has been telling us lately we remind me, we remind them of Ghost. I do not understand the comparison. I really do not. Some say that this is a gimmick. I say, this is just life. But we are going to play a song. This is a song about depression. It fits very well with the darkness of sunrise. This is a song called if you have Ghosts, all right, you have got.

33:57 Speaker 12: You have everything. If you have gold, you have everything.

34:08 Speaker 12: You can say anything you want, and you can do anything you want to do. If you have gold, you have everything. One never does that. One never does that. You can call it surprise. There it is, and a part of me is me. One never does that.

34:51 Speaker 7: In the night I am real.

34:58 Speaker 1: In the ninet I am read.

35:04 Speaker 12: The moons of the Left is a part of my thoughts, and a part of me is me. Forever is the.

35:11 Speaker 2: Wind in the night I am read.

35:29 Speaker 1: Now this next part I will talk about my vampire equalities.

35:33 Speaker 11: I will talk a little bit about the physical assets.

35:36 Speaker 1: Of being a vampire.

35:38 Speaker 11: And it goes something a little like this.

35:47 Speaker 15: Out of one my thanks too long, that of one man thanks to long.

36:00 Speaker 12: The Boots of the Left is a part of my thoughts and a part of me is me forever is the wind in the nine I am read.

36:13 Speaker 3: If you have.

36:14 Speaker 12: Gold, you have everything. If you have gold, you have everything.

36:27 Speaker 3: If you have.

36:28 Speaker 12: Gold a load, you have everything. If you have gold load you have everything.

36:58 Speaker 7: Oh my god, that was so good. Good job, guys, love it. I love it. If you're just joining us, we have a soda here in studio with us. Casey and Killian are here live and sounded amazing. By the way, So uh, where does uh? Where do you guys record?

37:16 Speaker 4: Like?

37:16 Speaker 7: Like where were Sunrise recorded?

37:18 Speaker 1: So we took a different approach this time. We used to record a Black Black Heart sound in Manchester, New Hampshire. He was a very good what we did there. We wanted a very local approach. When we used to record our music, we went for a very nice, homegrown, very diy approach. But with this single cycle and with the new songs that we are recording, I really wanted to step outside of my comfort zone. So for the first time ever in my entire musical career, we worked with a producer and we worked with the producer Kevin Billingsley.

37:54 Speaker 1: He's a wonderful, wonderful producer who's up in Maine. And you see he has recorded many bands like Major Moment. He has worked with bands, he has understudied for Avenge Sevenfold, just incredible bands. Troll is another band their local. Yes, yes, Kevin Billingsley does some of their music as well. Wonderful, wonderful bands. And I said, I've been wanting to work with this man for many, many years. So we went up to the Halo Studio just north of Portland, Maine, and we recorded with him, and it was a wonderful experience.

38:29 Speaker 1: It changed my mindset on what musical recording could be and songwriting could be. He really pushed us to our limits. He got the best out of us, and he put together just a beautiful sounding product. I have to say I am for the first time ever in my musical career, I am just so excited with how the music sounds. I listened to it, and I don't go back and say, oh I wish I did something like this, No, it is. He just he got perfection out of us and I am so so excited to have worked with him. He's wonderful.

39:02 Speaker 7: Oh very good do you plan to work with him again.

39:05 Speaker 1: Oh by far By Killian who talk a little bit about your experience with Kevin. Tell tell us how did you feel about Kevin?

39:13 Speaker 9: He was amazing, Like this was my first time, like uh, well, this is my first time recording with Soda and it was just like right off the gun, like he was he's so so nice. He helped us, like, uh, he gave us things we could change about our songs, and he just like the production value was just so surreal and yeah, and he was just so so good.

39:33 Speaker 1: To work with. He was very friendly the whole time.

39:35 Speaker 9: It wasn't like we're like it wasn't like a producer that like makes you stressed out, like oh you have to do this, like right, he was like, oh, here's how we can change this. And like if if we were struggling, like recording something or like we're struggling getting apart down, he like worked.

39:49 Speaker 1: Through it with us and like, yeah, just very very he never got frustrated. That's right. He brought the best qualities out of you, and he he did it in a way where he knew that you could do something musically or and he never put you down if it was difficult for you to get there. He walked you along the way, and he did it in such a kind Yes, you're right. It was just a wonderful experience to have him change your mind and approach it in a way that you never felt like you were a bad musician for not coming up with this idea first.

40:20 Speaker 1: He was like, this is how he can enhance your idea. Yeah, he did a wonderful job.

40:25 Speaker 7: I feel like a good producer kind of becomes like an extra member of the band.

40:29 Speaker 1: It's very true. Look at the Beatles, they had their fifth Beatle. Yes, it was their producer, and because of him, they put out a great quality work. And I think that Kevin has been our fifth and half. I say half because we have a half member in our band. He was severed in two, so that is why he is half. He plays the piano for us in Souta.

40:50 Speaker 7: Was that also in Maine?

40:51 Speaker 1: That that did happen in Maine? Yes, yes, he did not want to become a vampire. He's not in the music video because of which, so we decided to eat his lower half. So, yes, he plays the piano at about half of our shows.

41:04 Speaker 7: Okay, yes, yeah, I see so.

41:06 Speaker 1: That's why I say that Kevin was our fit and a half member of Sota for this recording.

41:11 Speaker 7: Yes, well that makes sense. So did you intend to record with him again?

41:15 Speaker 1: Almost definitely. Yes, yes, we actually we have three more songs that we are going to release over the course of the next year. But h do I have songs brewing. I have many songs that we are going to go back and record, and I'm very excited to do So. What's the name of the studio again, it's the Halo Studio Halo. Yes.

41:35 Speaker 7: Are you able to in your current form or forms because you've both technically, I mean, are you able to go to a place called with Halo and the name?

41:43 Speaker 1: Well, i'll tell you what. The whole vampire thing it happened the day after we finished recording up in Maine.

41:49 Speaker 7: It was.

41:49 Speaker 1: Yes, it was very fortuitous that we did not go into the Halo as vampires, because I don't think we would have made it through the night.

41:56 Speaker 7: Yeah.

41:57 Speaker 1: Yes, But again, as I said, I'm hoping by the end of this release schedule for Sunrise that I will no longer be a vampire and I can go back into the Halo Studio.

42:07 Speaker 7: Yes, yes, Oh, excellent, well, we'll, we'll, we'll hope for that. Do you have any plans to do a new EP or an album? I know this is a standalone single, What's What's because of so many different ways, so many different approaches you can take to release in music.

42:20 Speaker 1: I do have an album in my sights. It is a matter of finalizing some of the songs. When I make a musical project, I like to have cohesion with it. I like to have a cohesiveness, and like I said, these songs did not necessarily have a cohesiveness quality to them. But I do have an album that I have been writing and it will We'll talk more about it in time. But it is a record about time. It's about life, It's about fleeting time. And I have many songs that I have written, life and death and wanting to cheat death, wanting to escape death, but coming to reality that sometimes you cannot cheat death.

42:58 Speaker 1: So that is on the horizon. I have a handful of songs that the next time we go to Kevin it will be a full EP LP LP my Own Mistake. It will be on SODA's First LP.

43:10 Speaker 7: Oh very good, very good. Yes, Now, do either of you have any other projects that you're also involved in or is it h Soda exclusively or Killian.

43:20 Speaker 1: He plays a lot of music, from from theaters to other bands. Tell him what you do.

43:25 Speaker 9: I have a lot of other music outlets I play. I played drums in another smaller SKA band.

43:33 Speaker 1: I do.

43:33 Speaker 9: Yeah, I do pits for a bunch of music halls here and there.

43:36 Speaker 7: Oh wow, so cool.

43:38 Speaker 1: He recently did Swingey Todd so it worked very well being a vampire in that in that setting.

43:43 Speaker 7: Oh that makes sense. Yes, yes, wow, very cool. Now what's the other band?

43:47 Speaker 9: It's called hand Me Down. So they're out of Southern New Hampshire, Dairy London, Dairy Manchester.

43:52 Speaker 7: Okay, okay, very cool, very cool. And if you guys know, so you guys are brothers, how how long have you been making music together? A long time?

43:59 Speaker 1: Right, Well, we have been playing together for a number of years now. In Sota, I exclusively write the music and I give it to the rest of my band members and I tell them take this as a palette and do what you want with it. And I try to let them have the freedom to kind of embellish their parts the way that they would want to play them. So Killian and I don't necessarily write together, but we have been performing together for since very early on in the band. I would say this probably four years now.

44:33 Speaker 1: We've been playing with Sota together.

44:35 Speaker 7: Oh okay, yes, okay, and Killian. Are you on all the Soda tracks that have been released so far?

44:40 Speaker 9: I'm not so. The Sunrise that just came out. That is my first song that I'm.

44:45 Speaker 7: Oh, well, that's the first one. Okay. Cool.

44:48 Speaker 1: For the early Sota material, I really wanted it to be. I wanted to take a Dave Grohl approach where I did as many of the instruments as possible, So I played bass on the first the are six songs that we ever released, it was me, and then I outsourced the drumming elsewhere because I cannot do drums, so we had others do that.

45:09 Speaker 7: Yeah, yes, okay, okay, but a Chillian, you'll be on everything going forward, I assume, right, yes, oh very nice.

45:15 Speaker 1: I changed my mentality and I want to make sure that all of my band members are featured equally because I have accrued a very good ensemble of phenomenally talented musicians and I want them to have their moments.

45:31 Speaker 7: Yes, well, I'm not necessarily equally right, because you have one guy who's been several.

45:34 Speaker 1: He is half he is in half, so he you know, he gets half of the rest of everyone else.

45:39 Speaker 7: But yeah, yeah, no that makes sense, that makes sense. Yeah, absolutely, very good, very good. So the next show, so you've got the official release in July at Chaskey and I forget the day.

45:50 Speaker 1: Yes, it's Thursday, July seventeenth.

45:52 Speaker 7: Seventeen, okay, with trading tombstones, whom I love. I think we've had them on the show.

45:57 Speaker 1: Yes, I believe you have.

45:59 Speaker 7: We must have.

45:59 Speaker 1: Yes, I think I tuned into that one.

46:01 Speaker 7: Okay, yes, it becomes a blur.

46:03 Speaker 1: Oh, I understand, although.

46:04 Speaker 7: I shall not forget this one ever.

46:07 Speaker 1: Well, you might not live to tell the tale.

46:10 Speaker 3: I know.

46:11 Speaker 7: I recommended that there's there's neighborhoods I can send you to. Don't worry. What are your fresh meat for you to.

46:17 Speaker 1: Be skirting around the issue out there?

46:18 Speaker 8: Oh?

46:19 Speaker 7: I you know? I?

46:21 Speaker 9: Uh?

46:22 Speaker 1: Who else?

46:23 Speaker 7: Oh? Uh?

46:24 Speaker 1: What was the other one?

46:25 Speaker 7: The band that was apart for twenty years?

46:28 Speaker 1: Yeah, painted the Town Dead?

46:31 Speaker 7: The Town Dead? Yes? And uh there was one other band, right or was there?

46:35 Speaker 1: Yes, Bastard Curse, Oh yes, yes, we really pick him out don't we.

46:40 Speaker 7: Yes, that sounds like a great show.

46:42 Speaker 1: It's very doomy and gloomy.

46:44 Speaker 7: That'll be at the shaky Yeah, yes, and then you have anything planned beyond that or.

46:49 Speaker 1: Well, our drummer he is getting married very soon. He's getting married, so we are kind of I think we are going to go back into into the shadows for a little bit. And he, you know, he's doing some life changing things, even more so than becoming a vampire. So so being married is a big committement. So we will probably take some time off, but we have more music on the way, so we will supplement the time that we are not playing live shows with more music. In your ear.

47:19 Speaker 7: Waves, oh, very good, very good. What is your hearing? Does the hearing change at all when you're a vampire? I've I thought like vampires can hear like longer distances, right.

47:30 Speaker 1: I hear frequencies that no man should ever hear. I hear dog whistles. There's somebody to two towns over and they're using a dog whistle and it is grating on my nerves.

47:42 Speaker 7: Yes, yes, well, don't don't get to okay, Yeah, well, very good, So I think we should we should end with uh, we'll play uh, We'll play Sunrise again. Such a great track to close out for people who are just tuning in. But where should people go online to keep up with everything that you guys?

48:00 Speaker 1: Just anywhere you want to. We are on the facebooks, we are on the instagrams. We are on TikTok. I make a lot of tiktoks, and whether they're funny or not, that is for you to design. We're on Spotify YouTube. We have the music video. You if you're listening and you're not seeing the visuals, you will understand why I sound the way I sound. Yeah, watching our music video. It is on our YouTube anywhere. If you just look up Sota so O t Ah band, you'll probably find us.

48:30 Speaker 7: By the way, does your name ever get misspelled like on a flyer or something that.

48:34 Speaker 1: More often than not it gets mispronounced. People just don't understand. They don't understand. They say Sota and I say, no, it's just Sota. It's so you can there is no annunciation, just say you know. But then every now and then, yes, I'll say oh, we're a band called Soda and they'll go s O d A and I go, no, it is not so o da, Why would I name my band soda?

48:53 Speaker 7: Right right?

48:54 Speaker 1: I get the confusion. I get it.

48:55 Speaker 7: No, no, yeah, yeah, no, that makes sense. Well, guys, thank you. This has been wonderful and we will play that again in just a moment. And if you miss any part of today's show, it'll be up in just a little bit at w mnhradio dot org at my website Matt Connorton dot com.

49:17 Speaker 1: Would you? The verdict is not out yet.
