The Rebecca Riots
Musicians — Anglesey
03Interview
Name, where are you from?
The Rebecca Riots - Anglesey, North Wales.
Describe your style in three words?
Passionate, Energetic, Dirty
What’s the best gig you’ve ever been to?
(Luke) My personal favourite was watching The 1975 - If I believe you - at Manchester O2 Apollo, I was right at the front and through the whole gig the crowd were pushing from the back so we could barely breathe, then for that song everyone was just so silent because it was that intense. I’ve always said that when you’ve properly captured a crowd its when you can hear a pin drop in the room.
If you could be on the line up with any two bands in history?
Catfish & The Bottlemen and the Arctic Monkeys.
Which subcultures have influenced you?
Football Casuals and Mods!
If you could spend an hour with anyone from history?
Nelson Mandela, because he brought people together and we kinda hope to do the same with our music.
Of all the venues you’ve played, which is your favourite?
We recently played Studio 2, Liverpool, and that was just a really smart place in general and we had a good crowd so that’s probably the best so far!
Your greatest unsung hero or heroine in music?
We’d probably go with Catfish & The Bottlemen, if you could call them unsung? But because we come from so near where they do, they just inspire us to keep working at it everyday and get out there and gig.
