Xfm Meets The Temper Trap At South By Southwest
Australia’s most hotly tipped join us for a chat at Austin. Ever thought there was a Katy Perry element to their music? Here’s your confirmation…
Melbourne’s The Temper Trap spared us five minutes from their incredibly busy schedule at South By Southwest. An incredible five minutes it was, too. Want to know what they have in common with pop siren Katy Perry? Or their plans to move to the UK? It’s all here.
Truly, the hottest act of 2009 gave us one of the best interviews at SXSW. You can listen to it all again, now…
How long have you been at South By Southwest?
We’ve been here for about a day so far. We’ve already played a show…
What are you hoping to get out of SXSW?
I guess our ultimate aim is to meet someone in America we can work with...
Can you describe SXSW?
It’s very intense, even just walking around yesterday…
Seen anything great yet?
I haven’t had the time to watch bands yet. We’ve pretty much just flew in…
What’s your plans for the UK over the next month?
I think ‘Science Of Fear’ is coming out as a single in April…
