Fuzzy Logic

Having had Beatles on the brain for a while now, specifically the early years of their hysteria-inducing mop tops, I started to think about their early interviews. I looked up some of those early pressers and was taken aback by just how many times the fab foursome was asked about money and marriage, but there were also some gems hidden amongst the clunkers. And so, inspired by the early press conferences of the Beatles, especially their US tour interviews, I decided to ask some of those very same questions to some of the best and brightest making music today.

Portland's spiky foursome Summer Cannibals is about to roll through DC in support of latest record Can't Tell Me No. The bands sound is both defiant and inspiring, with paint stripping riffs and more shoutiness than you know what to do with. It's a riotous, take-no-shit kind of rock and roll in all its unruly, unapologetic glory.

Before tomorrow night's show at Comet Ping Pong, why not to get to know the Cannibals…
