A Deap Vally renaissance is going to begin next year and will be our focus for the start of 2013. They will blow the cobwebs off a music scene that has become just a little bit stale.

There's no platform for an unsigned music scene in the main cities - it's all hyped acts or showcases behind closed doors. I read about artists that are doing it 'the old-fashioned way' and touring, as if that's a unique thing to do - well, that should just be the way it is.

I'm a little bit of a control freak when it comes to my music, unfortunately.

I wear make-up, and it gets a little bit thicker every year.

Just when you think we're living in a little bit of a divided world, music brings us together.

They're going to get better as the season goes on. Next year, I'll be chopping at the bit to watch these guys throw.
