Name, where are you from?
Amy Taylor - I live in Australia.
What do you do?
Sing in Amyl and The Sniffers.
Describe your style in three words?
Feral but hot.
What’s the best gig you’ve ever been to?
C.O.F.F.I.N at the Paddo RSL, Sydney NSW.
If you could be on the line up with any two bands in history?
The Plasmatics, They’re the greatest.
Junglepussy, she’s smart and makes good music.
If you could spend an hour with anyone from history?
Dolly Parton. I think I could get a lot of wisdom and laughs from her if she gave me the chance. Or Bon Scott, because he was a mad b*tch. Or Lemmy.
Of all the independent venues you’ve played, which is your favourite?
I'm not really sure what you mean by independent and if these classify but Metoero, Barcelona. The people were so nice. It was a last-minute gig and it was hot and sweaty.
Last Chance, Melbourne. 2 of the hardest working sweetest people. We played in their front bar to 80 people for $2 entry once.
Thee Parkside, San Fransisco. Hot Sweaty gig.
Your greatest unsung hero or heroine in music?
Wurumpi Band. Their music rocks and they sing in Aboriginal language.
