Sure, thanks, so thanks for having us met. My name is Christine. I am and one of the lead vocalists. I also dabble with keys, but been with the band for oh gosh, I want to say seven almost years now. Okay, we have a fun time. Excellent, excellent, and you sir. Yeah, my name is Mike. Mike im the drummer of Pretty Late, one of the founder members back when it was just three of us.

Yeah, we've come a long way. We've grown a lot. This group has become a family, you know. Yeah, yeah, very cool, very cool, all right, And to you, oh the money is Mike. I'm sorry, I was distracted. Yeah, I zone out a little bit. Yeah, No, my name is Mike. I'm one of the guitar players. I do a little bit thing, and I do a little bit right, And you know, started this about ten years ago, and our real our real true lineup kind of came back in twenty nineteen, like right before COVID. Yeah, so it was a challenge to getting too so like and then that kind of the next stage of things.

And it's kind of cool, you know what we're doing now, because it's a little bit different from what we did we were your twenties. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, of course, of course I carried quite a lot, yes, yes, and you and I'm Rob. I play guitar, a little, vocals, songwriting. It's been definitely get go Okay. There's just three of us, so yeah, yeah, so you're one of the originals. Yeah, yeah, there's five of us. Yeah, excellent. And the bass player, Yeah, my name's Tom. I play the bass, guitar and do a little bit of this, a little bit of that, you know.

But I've been in the band since twenty nineteen. I like the band. It's a great band. It's been a lot of fun. You do some too, you know. I'm a bass player and I was watching you and uh yeah, you do some some solos in there too. It's pretty cool how that. I definitely like to get adventurous with my bass playing, and I'm inspired by bass players who take the bass in more non traditional roles a lot of the time. Man, yeah, yeah, do you because I was curious too, obviously, you know you're you're playing acoustic in here today.

Do you approach it the same way when you're plugged in on stage or yeah? I do relatively of my low end. For me, it's like really important to anchor the band like a bass player supposed to but well, in between those two, I like to weave some you know, fun little things in there. Yeah. Yeah, i'd add something to the song or something that I like particularly, you know, you know, you know how it is, you kind of try to be tasteful, right right of course, of course, Now how much so is it one full album that's out or and then you're working on the next one or what's what's the status of that?

Ye? So yeah, whoever wants to go, Yeah, just three songs right now on in on our second album, and we're in the process of actually starting to do some more creative writing. Okay, this new album is actually going to be a twist. It's really going to be a big twist for all our fans. It's out there. It might be something that they wasn't expected really, but we got something in the future set up for the Icy is going to be some amazing things. Any clue or is the twist of surprise? It's a wonderful surprise.

Things in concept stages, Yeah, a lot of lots of station a lot of poka. Well that's that's definitely a twist.

Yeah, yeah, you guys will figure it out. But no, it's a lot of clay to carve away everything that Now the studio tracks that we've heard, where where were these recorded because every sounds really good. It was Ugly Duck Studios out of Brighton. I think they were you know, they were in the Sound Museum that got closed down like that, and now they're somewhere. I think they're Mercy Boulevard now. Okay, so everything's done in city, but you know, we're the next record is still kind of in the process or we're doing you know, different engineers and doing the quotes and you know, kind of running around communicating with people.

So I'm not sure who's going to record the next record, but oh okay, definitely a talented person we will find. Well that goes out for anybody else. If you don't want to jump on, here's your opportunity. Yeah. Well, we live in a time where there's so many different options in terms of how you record. You know, you can do it yourself. You can. I mean some of some of the bands we have on it's like, uh, you know, they're they're recording in their living room or their garage or wherever, and and it ends up sounding great.

It's like you know, if if you if you really know what you're doing. But but also too, I mean, if you can find a find an engineer or a producer who's really good and who wants to work with you, you can get some great some great stuff. How did you the the studio in Brighton? You said, yeah, how did you come to work with with that studio? Just you know, we just kind of jumped on Google and talked to different people and saw what there was available, you know, at the time, just like right during the early like the first six months of when the COVID shutdown started, Like so it was kind of weird at the time, everything was weird, like it was limited.

There weren't as many people like open and working. I think Ugly Duck Studios did a great job. You know, we had a good experience with them, but I think, you know, just for the sake of doing things different, we're going to probably move elsewhere next time. But they great people there. They did a wonderful job. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, Now so they did they you said they closed, they just moved. They moved common story these days. Yeah, the buildings in a big old mill building that's housed a lot of music stuff.

Part of that was their studio. Every everybody lost when this building got sold. You know, Okay, I gotcha practice spaces. It was everything, you know. Yeah, yeah, no, that's that's too bad. Now are you playing a lot of shows? Does? Does the band play out a lot? Yeah? We we got a show coming up January thirteenth, Saturday in Maldon, Massachusetts, Faces Brewery. We're playing with sounds and scenarios and the band called the Nicotines. Okay, welcome to come out if she can. Yeah, absolutely, a month in advances, January thirteenth, January thirteenth, Yeah, so it's yeah, there's a lot of good stuff.

We've been playing at the Middle East. We've been playing saying we have one coming up with twentieth. Yes, we're going back to the Jungle Community Center and it's a sixth on board Court and Summerville weekend. Come out and celebrate with us. Oh that's your birthday weekend? When is that? January twentieth, January twentyeth Very good. I have a show that night too, that's at the Jungle. Yeah. So we've been playing like you know, we played the Midway, we played the Jungle, we played Middle East.

Is like that exchelon of clubs and you know, now we're getting interested in like the next tier clubs in Boston. So it's it's been definitely interesting and you kind of you pay your due, you know, you know, you don't really get any attention or apply apply on an email until you know they see that you've been busy doing things right. Exactly, it's nice. Exactly now has the sound changed from who are who are the original Three? Again? Who's Mike? Mike three in the center? The first original three?

I'm sorry? And that has the sound changed from from the original the original version of the band. Absolute, it's it's matured. It's definitely more mature crowd. We went from like a basement rock group, you know, with two guitars and a drummer and bass player, you know, kind of that messy Toronto Punk Rocks signed that kind of had some indievie to it, you know, but you know it was just three guys hanging out in the basement playing hesic back then. So it's you know, it's definitely now it's kind of evolved in and it's constantly evolving every Yeah, just like I was saying just a minute ago off here with my bassis, like last night just randomly.

We were just doing this acoustic thing, just warming up and just playing around. But we actually came up with something that I am adding into our shows, even if we just take a couple of seconds, break it down for this one second, just me and him just do this little ensemble, because it was amazing. Ye how we vibed with just this two acoustic instruments, just things like that that we can now add to this next album. Yeah, it just might be one track that you just get some instrumentals, you you know what I mean?

We just who knows, like we just wait? Was that the twist? Did you just give it away? Thought? I thought, I gotcha. There's still seventy five percent of a blank canvas. Yeah, yeah, I guess we're kind of hopeful and maybe the next up we can really bend genres and create something really interesting and unique. Yeah kind of it. It's our hope, you know what we wanted. That was the best way to put it. We have a lot of different musical tastes between the five of us, and so much musical talent is just a monthst like musical talent that's just being that can be unlocked.

Yea makes sense, you know, I think the funnest part being probably from the outer perspective in I know, probably Tom could attest to this too, kind of coming into the band a little bit later, is you know, being friends with these guys, seeing them grow on a personal level, on a musical level. I think, in particularly myself, I loved that. You know, when I first started hanging out with these guys, it was you know, as friends and then doing some like vocal training and then kind of like immersing into it and you know, finding finding a sound that you know that fit the group.

So it's been it's been very fun over the years. Yeah, I think Mike. Mike said it best. It's just like we formed this family of you know, of misfits, as I like to say squad. Did any of the material from the original version of the band has that has that made it into this version? Like obviously I'm sure it sounds very different if it did. But did any of those songs kind of survive or into the first album the second the first album that I was ye, right, I would have to say Deceiver, Yeah, And didn't you guys write like half the atch that that's pretty much the same sound that it was that day?

We were. Yeah, I mean everything changed a little bit, but I mean in its pure form, is it's all their Yeah, you know what I mean, it's a lot of it was written already, and you know, besides like a few two or three tracks that we were writing as we were kind of got the five of us together, I mean, but even still everyone went back and put their own twist on and was already there anyways. But so it's just kind of it's the same thing, but you know, it's just a different flavor. Yeah. Yeah, the structure was definitely there.

I think the you know, the minutia of it, all of you know, kind of transitioning vocals from one to the other was a fun experience. I'm sure some days Mike wanted to pull his hairs out, but but it was fun. It was a fun time. What why why do you say did Mike sing everything before you were in the band? Is that he did? So it was just the three of us, right, But as I gave him the name, he was the front man. Rob was the side vocals, you know, the second vocalist, and I would do background and app lips.

That's just what it was. It was just us three and we just went out and just had a good old time. Yeah, and then as you see pretty latest forms and now we have us five and hopefully we're just going to keep on going to sky's the limits. Yeah, yeah, is it hard? Is it hard with five people in terms of schedules and you know, rehearsal and booking shows and everything challenge. Yeah, we're not twenty two anymore. We're not living with mom, you know. Yeah, we have responsibility, responsibilities, we have rand you know, like you know, we're in our thirties, like, you know, there's houses and mortgages and paying back student loan.

Yeah, waking up at four o'clock to go to my construction job and everyone's gonna else cut their own time. And then yeah, moms to see family, to check in on you know, new babies that arrived and nephews and nieces and birthdays, so you know, yeah, it's definitely hard. But we try to get together at least once a week, and we try to play out around once a month, depending on what we have on our schedule. Yeah, you know, as things evolve, we just kind of roll with the bunches and figure out what works for us best.

Yeah, and communication is a really strong factor on that, you know what I mean, because we have to be able to jump on opportuncesarily come in. Yeah, so it's it's can be a struggle, but we do our best to survive it. Yeah. I can only think of it in one you know, I used to play in bands, and I can only think of one band I was in where we actually had five of us. But I just remember with it was like just just going from a band with four people to five people. It was a huge difference in terms of just everyone's schedules and everything.

It was a you know, it was a challenge. So yeah, I understand, I understand the issues that can come up with that. But yeah, what about I mean in terms of deciding where to record and everything. I mean, is that is that pretty democratic? Or do you kind of touching on like what Tom said earlier, It's it's in what Mike said. Honestly, it's kind of looking out doing little research. You know. It's anything you gotta get a couple of quotes, You got to get a couple of different ideas, see what their backgrounds is.

They might be amazing what they do, but does it fit with us or will last stuff them? You know, and then like how to I was saying, it's just trying to figure out what the next best avenue, you know, and just going from there. We'll always open to you know, new ideas, new options, and yeah, I mean we we put up a lot of research. I'll and you know, I'll bring you know, kind of a PowerPoint pretty much presentation to the group and we'll try to come to a COmON vote or you know, someone Rob Christine, Tom, Mike, Mike.

They might say, hey, I found out that's cool place. Whyn't we just give a callings what they're they're asking for, yeah, you know, for responsibilities and money and contracts, but all that stuff like that, and just kind of figure out if the dates will work for us. And then you know, things have kind of changed a little bit too. Like pre COVID, like recording studio time was probably about thirty forty dollars less hour, yeah you know what I mean, And that's kind of changed kind of bit and touches everything, yeah, everything.

Yeah, and we you know, we would get four and at all it's for eight hundred block and now they're looking at like, you know, a ten hour that's like almost doubled, like six fifty. Yeah, just for the eight hour block. You you know what I mean, that's that's a working day. I get it, you know. With the costs. Oh yeah, it's a struggle. But so we got to make a lot of money for our merchant, our shows and the streams and things like that to put forth like that because we try to put it spend as least money out of pocket as we can.

Yeah, but you know, and we do it already too in all right, John, as much as you can. You know, being in a working band, when you're a bunch of you know, working individuals, it's like what yeah, but we do pretty good. You know, things have gotten pretty serious. We do manage to make some money, use it to buy merch, you know, save ourselves the trouble of paying out of pocket all the time. We succeed in that. Mike signed us up, put us in for a grant nomination through like a mask cultural arts thing, and we won, which was really great.

You know, we want some money that we put towards new gear and stuff. Like the band's becoming some kind of entity, like you know, business, like a real working band. You know. Yeah, pretty cool. It's a lot, but it's fun. It'll just be quiet because I my listening rights. I made profit off my shirts. We don't make profit. We don't have any profits. That's why we'll always open to donations. Find anything. Yeah, yeah, well don't worry. We'll get something for your appreciation of gratitude if you donated, will send you something that lets you know that you have donated, right, exactly, exactly.

Yeah. I listened to UH satellite radio in the car and there's always these ads about the r S is coming for you and UH call optimal tax relief. Oh yeah, I don't have the jingle memorized Optima tax Relief. But you love when they call you in the middle of the work day. It's like, hey, you know, it seems like you're broke, wants some money.

Now. Do any of you also play in other bands or are you all just Uh? I'm pretticular really curious about Mike. Mike because every drummer who is on the show always has a million dands. Drummers are in such high dead I don't know how they do it. I don't know how you're kid. It's really hard to be in one. Yeah, with branding and this and that, and you know, like it's it's it's a full time job. Yeah. Yeah, and if you're going to commit to one, it's great. But yeah, but like I feel like there's people that are like musicians and like they're they're just they can just jump in and they can work any type of music and whatever.

And then yeah, they offer to other bands. And then there's people that are really passionate about one project. They want to get that forward going, you know what I mean. So everyone has their own kind of deviation between the two. Yeah, I mean a little bit more than the other. Yeah. Yeah, Yeah, we had a I don't know if if you guys know the band Sepsis, Uh, they were on recently and then the drummer was on his way to play some show with another band that he has in Brooklyn. Yeah. Yeah, travel like yeah, I mean I've seen a few logicians that like there's just a little bit above our level.

And it's like you're doing so much traveling. How do you pay for that? Yeah? How do you have the time to do the two jobs? Right? You know? Right? Because it's really like four jobs because you're also a musician and then you have to do your marketing and social media messaging. You have to be nice to your fans, and you have to talk to them and entertain them. And when they say hi to you, you have to sit down and have a conversation with them. You can't just walk away from right, right. So yeah, that's it's like you really have two extra jobs when you're a musician, you know on top of your Yeah, you're you're really working three jobs just to play music.

Love it, you know, yeah, which we love talking with our fans, we do. Yeah. I think we got home around like eleven thirty after practice last night. So yeah, now who does uh that you could because you mentioned how much work it is like in terms of like social media for example, who who handles that for for you guys or do you all do it? Kind of all try to do a little bit, but you have a team that's kind of helping us. So I have We have an LMS UK. This is a company out in London. They do a lot of our contact creation, but we do.

We provide all the raw material. I still do a lot of emails and reach outreach and stuff like that. You know, everyone else kind of chips in when they can. I tend to put that responsibility on myself. Quite a bit. But you know, it's just you just have to act with urgency in this business. So uh, it's tough. It's definitely tough to come to to get a opportunity out to five people and then get an answer returned and things like that. So sometimes it's easier for one person delegate and kind of just to figure out how we're going to figure it out and move it on.

But these guys are getting better at getting back to me, and so I can get back to people like you and people like the club owners and this anding like that, and people thinks because a lot of stuff is just coming at us now and it's just like, wow, I gotta get a lot of answers out and I got to figure out the sketch with five people to get this one person answer, and they're looking at me, looking at the for like the hell I ever replied you want to play or not? You know? Yeah? Yeah, So basically, because that Mike's really the the heart behind a lot of our social media stuff.

He's got the strategy, you know, the mind for it. But like he said, we've outsourced some of that stuff for our ben and it's definitely saved some time and after definitely well worth the money spent, for sure. It's it's definitely nice. It's nice to be able to kind of come back down to earth a little bit and just focus on my music and get there. So you know, it's just like you know, as these things grow, you know, you kind of know, like these the brain becomes takes the life of its own, and you know, you're just don't even know.

It's just doing things on its own. Like it goes on like people looking at our past content, you know, the music itself, and that's just kind of snowballing and everything online. As the Internet does, it starts to just kind of multiply, right, you know what I mean. So and then the challenge comes. It becomes keeping up with it exactly, and you got to feed that machine. And that's where we're at now. You know, it's moving faster, faster faster. So yeah, yeah, absolutely, how many, So how many songs do you have because you've got the first album and then you've got new you've got new stuff obviously for the new album, So we've probably got fifteen sixteen, maybe twenty so all together, yeah, Moses maybe, Yeah, it's pretty We have completed ten released we have ten released.

It's our full album. You guys are probably getting a three song epiece way next year, okay, and you know we're writing that. We're taking our time with that, yeah, don't. We don't want to rush out of product. You know, we took a long time to get like it took you know, six years to find a lineup. Yeah, then it took four years for that lineup to kind of master the craft again to the studio, and we still kind of rushed that and we did it during the COVID time, and it was our first whack at recording and all that stuff, and you know, kind of taking all the lessons we've learned for the past four and a half years and applying it to the second album.

Yeah. So what we've learned is that we're just gonna do it the way it needs to be done and take our time with it. And you know, we're gonna play our old music. We'll play some covers while we're out there. You might we might play unreleased songs if you come out to the shows. You just you're not gonna get a version on Spotify for at least a year. It cost money. Yeah, yeah, exactly, what do you guys do for for covers, we get some stuff, we rotate them around, you know what I mean. So that's kind of like a box that keeps refilling a lot of variety in the genres.

Like one of some of our earliest covers from when the five of us first got together, it was like Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Dapleton, Valerie by Amy Winehouse. Yeah, and then you know there's some rock covers, some pop covers we've done. Uh, we did some remember when we did what was that funk song? We learned that Carl Carlton? Yeah, yeah, Yeah, that was the one. Yeah. It's like we just we like a lot of difference. Yeah, it depends on the audience, you know, because like that's what you that's why you pick.

You pick your covers based on who's going to be there, you know, I mean the other bands were playing shows with and say what type of stuff's gonna fit with the other artists more in this Yeah, that's kind of how we pick our covers, you know what I mean. We got a couple of covers that we just kind of that we can pull, you know, out of the hat, Yeah, and do that. But covers we kind of rotate them, you know what I mean, something you could come out well cover that, yeah, you know, yeah, are any of these songs, by the way, are any of them kind of different live in terms of because some of them kind of have a vibe like I can see where alive, you can you can stretch them out a little bit, h you know, maybe kind of jam a little bit.

Do you do any of that with any of these songs? Yeah, No, it's not exactly exactly the same thing. You want to touch on that a little bit, you know, Yeah, it's always a little different. We play live really tied into what the album was. Yeah, yeah, freedom, just screw around, maybe tackle on a man or two, get someone else a little time to breathe. Behind the drums, yeah, Tom with a nice bass all here and there. Yeah, yeah, no doubt a lot more fun playing them, Yeah, I mean, so we'll sing all the others parts or add backups where they're not backups on the on the album, or you know, the guitar, Yeah, the guitar Salolne might not be exact, or you know, we'll just depending on how much time and the set will kind of condense things like but you know, if anyone's a fan of our music, they know that what we're we're doing like on the album, and it's not everything you can kind of translate that live anyways.

So but we give you a pretty good pure form that goes back to that that reference. You know, you look at things through staying glass. We're there to have fun with them too, so it's like it's an experience for us as well. So it's always going to be slightly different. So that's why we love, you know, having these opportunities to be out there kind of with our fans, you know, connecting with new people, just you know, kind of being a part of the music industry right now.
