ZADNJA TURNEJA SUM 41 NA "LUNINO LETO" !!!

 Charm music in Opatijski poletni oder vas še enkrat z veseljem vabita na veliki koncert kanadske skupine Sum 41 s predskupino, duetom britansko – hrvaške naveze The Lunar year. Sum 41 oboževalci skate punka verjetno že dobro poznate. Ta koncert pa bo prav nekaj posebnega, saj je po vsej verjetnosti to njihova zadnja turneja. 

Vrata na prizorišče se odprejo ob 20.00. uri. Ob 21.00 se bo predstavil The Lunar year, ob 22.00 pa na oder pridejo Sum 41.

Mislim, da se nihče ne more upreti tako prijetnemu povabilu :)

Z duetom The Lunar year sem naredila tudi kratek intervju. Objavila ga bom kar v angleškem jeziku, ker je to Connorjev domači jezik. Zdelo se mi je, da bo bolj zanimiv, če ga pustim v originalu. Želim vam prijetno branje.

THE LUNAR YEAR

"You’re awesome and thanks for taking time out of your ever busy lives to listen to the songs that we have put our love and souls into! Come to a show and we can party soon, peace."

1. How would you present the duet The Lunar Year, to someone that doesn't know you?

Connor: The Lunar Year is a pop punk duo from two different countries and backgrounds. I think we’re pretty unique in a lot of ways, we’ve both came from working in genres different to the music we are creating in TLY but also grew up mostly on pop punk so we’re back to our roots which is awesome for us.

2. Why did you choose this particular name? What does it mean to you?

Connor:The name The Lunar Year came from watching countless sci-fi shows on Netflix and being obsessed with horoscopes and all things space related. It’s a bit of a weird obsession of mine, i love it.

3. You have a very interesting story about your start. There aren't many duets that happen online. What was your first meeting live like?

Connor: It is a little different the way we came together - but also a really modern way of doing it! For me it wasn’t strange because it’s almost the exact same way as how The Vamps started 10 years ago. Our first meeting in real life felt like we’d known each other for years. I think because we’d already clicked musically online it was easy!

4. How do you compliment and differ from each other, character wise?

Connor: It’s great because we are similar in so many ways which helps us make decisions about the band and everything else but also musically it’s great because we have different ideas that seem to compliment each other without us having to think too hard about it. Sasa has such awesome rhythm ideas that compliment the melodies that I would write but when coupled together feels like it’s fresh and new.

5. I want to know what do you think about Croatia? Do you like coming here? What do

you like, or dislike about it.

Connor: Honestly Croatia is a special place for me! It feels like a real full circle moment because I went on a family holiday there years ago and which I loved it so much. We went to a place that I remember as being called ‘Red Island’ and was one of the most beautiful places i’ve ever been! Since then I always wanted more reasons to go back and for the reason to play and record music is just the perfect world for me.

 

6. What kind of message do you aim to send to people with your music?

Connor: I think there’s a fair few messages we’d like to spread with The Lunar Year’s music. There’s so much anxiety and hate in the world right now and sometimes putting into words how you might be feeling is pretty tough but having songs that you can relate to about those feelings for me personally really really helps. So if we can create some inspiring lyrics or melodies that help people come to terms with how they’re feeling then that’s awesome.

7. How do you coordinate? How do you make lyrics and music? Who does what?

Connor: It’s kinda cool because we’re both so open minded to how we’re gonna create our songs so there’s been a couple different ways we’ve started tracks. Whether it’s with a lyric or a melody or a guitar part, it doesn’t really matter as long as it makes us feel something then we’ll go from there. Funnily, our song Back For More came from me in the shower singing ‘I hate you but I can relate to you’ then we took it away and worked on it into the song it is today. It’s funny how songs present themselves to you sometimes.

8. In your opinion, what does a song need to become loved or popular?

Connor: When you’re talking about songs like pop songs I think people don’t realise how much songwriting ‘math’ and thought has gone into a lot of these songs before they turned out the way they are. But I think many songs as long as they make you feel a certain way whether it be happy, sad, nostalgic etc then the song has done its job and this is the reason why they go popular.

9. What are your plans for the future?

Connor: Plans for the future! Release an album, tour the album, be content with however the music and touring did. Then back around! We have a real love for what we’re doing so feel super lucky!

10. What do you expect from the concert in Opatija?

Connor: I honestly don’t know what exactly to expect but I do know that Croatian people are some of the nicest i’ve ever met so I’m sure we will be welcomed with open arms! Sum 41 are a band we both grew up with so to be playing a show with them is an honour. I did a cover of In Too Deep on one of our arena tours with The Vamps so to be playing a show with them now in TLY is a full circle special moment for me.

11. What would you like to tell the people that listen to your work?

Connor: Anyone listening to our music, thank you! You’re awesome and thanks for taking time out of your ever busy lives to listen to the songs that we have put our love and souls into! Come to a show and we can party soon, peace.
