Why this name?
Hermes is an Ancient Greek God (Mercury in Latin). Use the google to learn more. I represent a message that is both enlightening and necessary. It's a give and take.
Do you play live?
Yes. I love playing with a live band especially. My buddy's group Broken Records did a show and asked me to do a set, and that was a wild experience. I've never seen an audience get so amped over my music.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It's time for a new way of distribution. Companies need to catch up.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes.
Your influences?
Common, Phonte, Joni Mitchell, Nas, Atmosphere, Blueprint, Black Thought and the Roots Crew, Joss Stone, Saukrates, RZA, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Big Daddy Kane, J Dilla, Janis Joplin, Tupac Shakur, Rod Stewart, Eyedea, Tool, Pharaoh Monche, Kamau, D'Angelo, Public Enemy... to name a few. I love music.
Favorite spot?
Calgary, Alberta and Toronto, Ontario. For very different reasons.
Equipment used:
I'm learning the ropes on some Tech 1200s, and steady understanding music theory on the bass guitar.
