Especially if you are toiling away in a local scene. Some nights everything is alive and magical, and some nights the rewards are hard and grudging. whitewolfsonicprincess was recently on a bill with Audiobon. It's a true meeting of the minds and creative spirit. We love what they do, they love what we do, and approaches and results are very different, but somehow completely complimentary.
It's a mutual admiration that inspires and validates. Audiobon sometimes does covers, and their great front-man David Bon has an amazingly powerful voice. He can do justice to songs by Waylon Jennings and Johnny Cash. I mean he's got a voice that can knock down walls. A unique, inspiring instrument.
Last Saturday our bands shared a bill and Audiobon played this great Stone Roses song, one rarely heard out in the clubs, "I don't have to sell my soul, he's already in me…" And David's vocal just made it soar… breath-taking… I think Ian Brown would have been proud!
