never let go of, so we still go to gigs together for small and big bands weekly. Could you give me some insight in to your songwriting process? Billy usually will come up with the chords, melody and lyrics and take it to the rest of the band. We then work on structure, add riffs and instrumental parts until it’s the final track we take to the studio. The latest track “Lose My Mind”, is available to stream on Soundcloud where else can our readers check out your music? We have a YouTube channel and we’re also on Spotify, iTunes, Amazon Play, Deezer, Google Music and the rest of them. What do you do outside of Bel Esprit? We’re all uni students studying in our second or third years. We’re hoping after University we can commit to this full time. Who are your favourite bands/artists at the moment? There are some great small bands killing it at the moment. Circa Waves, Wolf Alice, Superfood, Leon Bridges, As Elephants Are, the list is endless. The new Cribs stuff is sounding great too. What are Bel Esprit’s 2015 goals? We want to put out as much music and play as many live shows as possible this year. Hopefully continue from last year and play a few more festivals too. Anything else you would like to say? Thanks to Pure M for this interview. Check us out on Facebook, Twitter and Spotify and keep up to date with us, we’re going to be putting out a lot of new stuff this year.
