Why this name?
We had about 50 names to choose from. We narrowed it down to 2 or3, then we voted and Idle Rains won.
Do you play live?
We do play live mostly in Saskatchewan which is a Province in western Canada and we love it!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It is a great avenue for independant bands to get their music to their fans, but at the same time is has allowed for others to take what they have not purchased! As a musician, this upsets me!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Absolutely!!
