Altered Sky - Shorts, Travelodge and David Cameron

We went and had a blast with Altered Sky in London’s The Garage last week and, you guessed it, forced the Louder Now Grab Bag on them! You can read what we thought about the show here, and you can stalk Altered Sky on their Facebook, Twitter and Website!

P.S Altered Sky Might be the nicest people in the world.



You’re feeling ill and can only have one home comfort. What do you choose?
Ross: Erm. Vivaldi Spring.
Rich: You’ve never listened to Vivaldi Spring.
Ross: Probably not intentionally, no.
Ryan: Shorts.
Ross: Aye! Shorts!
Ana: In all colours as well.
Ross: Yes so I can pick and choose.

Is there one thing you would like to become better at?
Ana: Probably answering questions. I find it so difficult to keep my mind on the question I just end up rambling but I would probably say reading.
Ross: That’s because you don’t read, ever!
Ana: I don’t! It’s hard, I have such a short attention span.

Piercings or Tattoos?
Ryan: Now I don’t have any piercings but I do have tattoos so I will say tattoos. The pain is simple depending on the area (Ana giggles here but we couldn’t tell you what on earth she could possible have found funny) , down to my wrists it wasn’t sore it was just annoying because of the vibration. I’ve basically planned out everything. I’ve got both arms planned and my chest. I’m thinking about my neck but it depends on my chest but…no definitely tattoos.

What do you prefer recording or playing live?  
Ana: Ooooh think of how many albums you could spit out! Or would you rather play in front of your mum?
Amy: Just my mum? I would probably have to say playing live. I love the response you get from the crowd playing live and just the sound you get as well is completely different. So as much as I love recording.

What is your favourite memory of being in this band?
Rich: Probably touring. Maybe not one single thing but being out on the road and playing gigs every night is brilliant and I couldn’t ask for anything more. The way things are going they’re getting bigger and bigger and better and better so I’m very much hoping that the best is still to come. That’s sort of a boring story. I could have told you about the time that Ryan set a bin on fire and that would been a better story but…

Who is the last person on earth you would want to be stuck in a lift with?
Ryan: The LAST person?
Ana: Can it be in the band? Haha!
Ryan: David Cameron to be honest.
Rich: Oooooh po-lit-i-cal!
Ryan: He would just have that posh accent and…just everything about him… and I would be like oh shut the…

Describe yourself in one sentence:
Ross: I really really love David Cameron. No but the singer upstairs really really looks like Boris Johnson, it’s scary so I had to leave.

How would you like your band to be remembered?
Ana: Well we’re not going anywhere! But if we were headed for guillotine I would thank our manager who is French and probably put us there. I would like us to be remembered for being real people still there isn’t a space between us and the fans or anyone else who comes to see us play we’re still human and we want to have fun all the time! We just want to chill out, e don’t want to have to run away after gigs or anything. That’s not a choice of ours and we do want to just chill out and be human.

Which decade would you most like to have been born in and why?
Ana: We talked about this yesterday!
Amy: I would have liked to have been around in the 60s because I love the music from the 60s and the clothes…and the furniture. I just wish I was around in the 60s.

Where’s the worst place you have ever woken up?
Rich: A Travelodge with Ryan’s tongue next to my ear. I turned around, it was right there.
Ryan: Are you sure?!
Rich: You were fast asleep!
