Lingua Franca
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Our history is nothing if not checkered. Again, we would refer you to our for a harrowingly detailed answer.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Often. Everywhere. Love it. All the time.
Your musical influences
Our influences are vast and varied: we marry such diverse elements as punk, musical theatre, blues, salsa, bossa nova and waltz. So you want proper names? Tom Waits, Calexico, The Clash, Talking Heads/ David Byrne, Camper Van Beethoven, Mary Poppins (just to name a few).
What equipment do you use?
Mostly hand-made, point-to-point wired stuff. We're big fat gear snobs.
