we are mid-state orange, and we are a band in melbourne, in the south of australia. we make ten minute drone thash love songs for cardigan wearers with short attention spans. we also make three minute sweet ambivalence songs for chest-beating female bonding sessions. it would be nice if you would dance- some people like to, some are too scared, others just don't like it. we believe in democracy in principle and indulgence in practice; witchdoctors in hard times and feather boas in good; gumboots in the sunshine, sandals in the rain... you get the picture, drop us a line.
Another reference point for that feeling is watching a Milli Vanili film clip or for that matter all Bollywood films. Something kind of makes me feel like Tom Cruise is an imposter as well. He just does not seem quite right.
Well of course the idea with Capgras Family is that all the members of the family have the delusion and think each other are imposters. But maybe a family of avid cover band viewers is really what it should be about.
hi! i was late to the L&L show on saturday, so i only saw 3 midstate songs (sorry), but they sounded really good! the new lineup is great! i hope you are recovered from playing in so many bands! if you aren't busy/going to meredith this sat, we are playing a show... we are on at 11:20. anyway, hope your recording is going well!
