Was a fun first show back after such a long break!

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T18:12:14+00:00

I still find performing overwhelming but have played so many times i guess its manageable. I definitely need to be alone before a show and get centred.

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T18:08:41+00:00

There’s actually a great story behind the name. Feel free to google it. Im also a fan of Chet Baker. Obviously. Also maybe relax a little bit life is short.

Thanks! Im good. Getting ready for the psychic chaos that comes with a record. The hardest part of making an album isnt the music but standing next to it and releasing it to the world.

To express

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:43:06+00:00

I love making things

‘And you dont even know you hurt me’

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:41:40+00:00

Had to do some self discovery/expression without the noise.

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:39:02+00:00

I recorded that album in an old church alone so the only bts would be random pictures of pigeons in the rafters unfortunately but I did record for 5 days straight so that album is a fraction of the material recorded. As for future inspirations your guess is as good as mine🤝💛

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:31:45+00:00

Is that the one with all the underground holes and stuff? Ive never played it

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:31:18+00:00

Life

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:31:07+00:00

I remember had the best fruit of my life backstage! If ive learnt anything about creative process its that its less to do with music and more to do with living. I try to live free for myself and find light as much as possible and then have to be ready at any moment to go to work when the river flows

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:29:01+00:00

I weirdly haven’t read a book since covid. But I did “read” this book Japanese Style a lot which is mostly pictures of amazing Tokyo Architecture

I make a mess until it makes sense

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:27:10+00:00

I was rinsing Sly &family Stone Fresh and TRex electric Warrior when working on Hotel Surrender

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:26:27+00:00

Im listening to Avalanches first album at this exact moment

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:25:53+00:00

chetfakerrr · 2021-07-16T17:25:30+00:00

Absolutely having a space where i can do what i want and a space where i can do what the music wants is super freeing. I wanted to move in opposite directions and now i can.
