Recently I had the pleasure of running into Boston band You Won’t in NYC. Since getting together in 2011 the indie folk rock duo have toured extensively throughout the United States and Canada, shared the stage with artists including The Joy Formidable, The Antlers, Josh Ritter and The Lumineers and have also been fortunate enough to have been previously reviewed by Deli Mag see here!
The Boston Music Awards recently nominated You Won’t in the category of "Folk Artist of the Year", head over to http://www.bostonmusicawards.com/ to help them out.
Lead singer Josh Arnoudse kindly answered a few quick questions for me:
Describe yourself in 3 words …
Pale lanky cheesemonger
Which aspect of making music excites you the most right now?
Never-ending quixotic quest for the perfect fake bass sound.
Guilty pleasure?
Fail videos
You can’t live without …
A bandmate who can play 57 varieties of instrument
If you weren’t a musician what would you be?
A sad and bitter clown
What do you have coming up music-wise (current or upcoming recordings/tours/extravaganzas/experiments/collaborations/top secret projects etc) ?
We are currently recording a new album to be accompanied by an experimental touring extravaganza of epic proportions entailing numerous top secret collaborations.
