Brooke Combe
Musician — Edinburgh
03Interview
Name, where are you from?
Brooke Combe, Edinburgh.
Describe your style in three words?
Cool, trendy, relaxed.
What’s the best gig you’ve ever been to?
Gotye. I remember the stage being filled with amazing musicians and I was blown away.
If you could be on the line up with any two artists in history?
Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Wonder.
Which subcultures have influenced you?
Hip-hop probably for a few reasons. I really love hip-hop culture in terms of fashion and dance and art. It feels really creative and expressive and I can relate to a lot of the lyrics that explore racial struggles.
If you could spend an hour with anyone from history?
Neil Armstrong. I would ask him so many questions. I love reading stories about space.
Of all the venues you’ve been to or played, which is your favourite?
King Tuts, Glasgow will always be a special place for me as it was my first ever headline gig. No doubt it’ll change the more I gig but for now, that holds a special place.
Your greatest unsung hero or heroine in music?
My mum. She works harder than I’ve seen anyone work and it’s instilled a good work ethic for me heading into this kind of industry.
