The Crimea chat to I LIKE MUSIC


ilm: You released lots of records and toured non-stop as support to The Stereophonics and on your own, what was the highlight of that time?

Davey: There have been many amazing supports, but the highlight is always our own shows, its always a shock to actually get a crowd in the first place, theres nothing better than having your arse licked by 300 people and that's the brunt of a headline show. A massive ego boost for the band. It was all pretty strange, we were so young and just out non-stop, eventually everyone went a bit bonkers.

ilm: Davey you've been called "the Lewis Carroll of his generation", how does that feel and please can you describe The Crimea songwriting/music making process?

Davey: I know people keep talking about Lewis Carroll but I still don't have a clue who he is, other than possibly the lion in Lord Of The Rings. The Crimea songwriting process is elongated, it starts with a few ad hoc ideas clumsily stuck together, usually the initial lyric is a rhubarb style lyric which happens to fit the music, we then learn the stuff as band, change it 100 times and then record it in our home studio, we then demo it about ten more times in different arrangements and tempos and rythyms and keys till we find the ideal way of playing the song, yawn, it's a pain in the ass, but its worth it.
