5 QUESTIONS SURF CURSE

WHO ARE YOU?
Nick: I’m Nick Rattigan Jacob: and I’m Jacob Rubeck Both: and together we are surf curse!
WHAT DO YOU DO?
Nick: Oh man, so many things! We make music, we watch movies, we eat a lot of sandwiches. Jacob: and whenever we can, we sleep!
WHY DO YOU DO IT?
Jacob: We just have an urge inside of us that needs to get out, like a creative outlet that, you know, we need to make come to fruition you in this crazy world, it’s the only thing that makes sense to us. Nick: we don’t know any other way, we learned this way a long time ago and old habits die hard. dust in the air in my house, we’re inhaling a lot of dust, a lot of dirt, a lot of chemicals - at work we’re doing a lot of rehearsals; we have a show coming up next week, we are writing a lot of music, we’re recording a new album next month - but currently we are inhaling a lot of dust.
WHAT'S THE HOT TOPIC?
Jacob: My hot topic as far as me, Jacob, is that I like the failure, and I say this with peace and love, the failure of like the focus on Drake and Kanye West. I think it took the whole pandemic to realise why we should or shouldn’t care about people with such power in the music industry that we can stop and be like you know what? They don’t matter, what they’re talking about is completely pointless to what we had to go through during the pandemic. So I like that, that’s what excites me and I think that that’s like the hot topic right now, it’s that like there’s just such a lack of empathy towards these huge artists that everyone used to care about, and now it’s just like ‘nah, we’re good’. Nick: Yeah I sort of agree, the pandemic was like the end of fight club and everyone got set to zero and now the facade of fame and celebrity has been lifted and everyone is on a bit of more of an even playing field, and I feel like this is allowing for a lot more different creations and music and different levels of music to exist all at the same time. There is no longer just the David and Goliath thing.
