a selection of some of your most submitted questions.
NEW
- Visit Scarlet's blog
to ask her questions about the music, inspiration, recording, singing
ans whatever other random stuff comes up.
We do randomly update our page at MySpace
too..
Where
did you guys come from?
Earth.
Don't
I know one of your members from another band?
Yes,
you've seen us in other bands - check our bio
for details.
When
are you going to tour my town?
We
travel randomly -our gig page will have
updaftes, and the myspace
page will be updated too.
What
style would you call your music?
We've
been calling it Neo Classic Rock...or the Eclectic Rock Renaissance...
I've
heard a bunch of rumors about Scarlet's past: visions, deadly accidents,
wild investors, weird relationships, pseudonyms- what's the true
story?
Scarlet's
smiling, but she's not talking. But who knows? You might get her
to answer if you ask directly at her blog.
Where
do those lyrics come from?
Scarlet
often lets the lyrics "come to her" either inspired by
Brian's guitar riffs, or from dreams. A little over half the lyrical
content is directly from dreams. Want to know more about the lyrics
and other random stuff? Visit Scarlet's blog, at ScarletJinn.com.
Can
I get a copy of the lyrics?
Lots
of people seem to be asking for the lyrics! The next CD will have
lyrics included. Some of the lyrics are now posted on our new
lyrics page .
What
inspires the musical riffs?
Brian
is constantly coming up with riffs from deep within the recesses
of his unconscious - the tunes just keep on comin'!
Who knows what is going on in there? He has also recently been dreaming
parts for his solos - taking a cue from Scarlet?
What's
up with the violin bow?
Brian
uses the bow on occassion for a variety of sounds with his guitars,
especially during the solo sections of "Deseree" live.
How
come Brian uses so many pedals?
Brian
is a self described "pedal geek". :-) All we know is that
he loves to create sounds, textures, and is on the ever expanding
quest for more excellent sounds. Visit Brian's
site for more vintage gear stuff.
At
the live show I noticed your bassist doing these crazy riffs and
noticed he has a collection
of vintage looking stuff - what's up with this guy?
Michael
is truly a one-of-a-kind human being and bassist. Most bands he's
played with haven't let him go wild. We sorta do - within
reason...
What's
Crystalline Sunshine about?
hmmm,
a state of mind?
Your
drummer is amazing, what's his story? And who are his influences?
Richie
is super versatile, but John Bonham and Neil Peart are probably
the most obvious influences. Lately he's been into Tool and Dream
Theater.
Where
can I get the CDs?
When
the new CD is finished it'll be for sale here at rockscarlet.com
and you will also be able to buy just select songs if you prefer.
The CD hould also be at some retail shops; we'll post the retailers
on the website. The 04 CD is sold out and probably won't be reissued
since the band membership has changed. The band may also have copies
of the 2005 3 song demo CD available at gigs at various times.
II
love what I'm hearing on the radio, but then I saw you live. You're
one of those bands whose live show is really great, even better
than the recordings! Any chance of a live recording?
We
hear that alot and are working to capture more of our live energy
in the next CD. Maybe we'll release some of our live recordings
in the future if enough of you want it...
I've
heard there's a video - can I get a copy?
We're
working on the video but we're focused on the new CD and, you know,
life. When it's ready we'll post a clip, and eventually it'll be for sale on DVD here at rockscarlet.com
.
Can
I get a copy of the 04 CD?
nope,
sorry -they're sold out, although there still may be one or two
floating around in your local CD stores.
