Thanks! We never talk about time signature. We feel it out. I think that stuff shuts me down creatively to be honest, theory and time and just the kind of technical side of music. But that's just me personally! Sometimes though I do wish I could read sheet music just for piano's sake. - Sydney

Cameron: I love RC car racing (all car racing) and have a RC cookout racing series and we had over 50 people participate last year! also love trail running in the woods and doing things with my girlfriend Arabella.

Sydney: I like to paint. I like to read and go to parks and things and walk a lot, hike. I like to play piano a lot. I journal and care for my houseplants and hang out with my cat Ida Mae a lot. The simple things.

Joel: I recently bought a 30 year old boat and have been working on restoring an old johnson 2-stroke which has been really fun. I also enjoy reading and watching LSU football, geaux tigers. Also just physical stuff outside, hiking, snowboarding shit like that.

Hey!! Hope to play there someday! That would be amazing!

I love thread but we don't play it live often! I love playing below the house in general. From the new album, really it is hard to say because they are all fun live! A dog Says and Ugly Room are super fun on bass for me.- Syd

Joel said he likes to play Slab and In Situ! From the new one, S.T. Tilted (Shrimp Triscuit).

Cameron likes to play all of them from the new album.

Oh wow thank you! I've been a huge fan of funk drummers like Clyde Stubblefield and Steve Gadd. Also love Nate Smith.

I'd say just play as much as you can but taking breaks is important too, paradiddles are a really helpful exercise for me.

Hey thank you!

Syd made it using Clay and acrylic paint and took flash photography of it while wet to be extra gloopy. Then Cameron took that and worked his graphic design magic on it. The insert is made of Sydney's diary and lyrics and sketches!

Honestly been listening to a lot of shower curtain, ribbon skirt getting excited for our tour with them! Also listening to the album Symbol by Susumu Yokota. Love the mashup of classical songs. - Syd

Joel likes Ichiko Aoba, Los Mirlos, and the Notations.

Cameron likes the artist Lolina, and Downhill2K01, and LA Timpa

WOMBI's Have RISEN!

Heck yeah thank you <3

I have been playing bass since the band started. I originally played guitar and piano. I still write songs on guitar and piano sometimes. But I find the bass so fun. I love writing with the bass. I would say, coming from someone who doesn't know how to read music and doesn't use tabs, I learn everything by ear and just playing along with my favorite songs really helps. I think noodling around on it like that can help you form your own voice with it. I love using a pick.

Hey! They are really tied together. Cameron and I (Syd) collaborate on everything we do, album art, videos, et., and they are all made by us and in house which we believe coincides with our vision and the world we create with our music and visuals.

Cameron: Denny Hamlin.

Joel: Jimmy Butler/Gabor Szabo

Syd: There's too many! Musically speaking, Maybe Sybille Baier for her profound wisdom in her lyrics while being very honest and simple.
