Name: Mr Amish.
Age: One year.
Hometown: Te Awamutu / Hamilton.
Sounds like: Bowie being slapped into the ear of a blind Armadillo.
Associated Acts: Soulty Sultans, Cheats (playing bass), Aporia (playing drums).
Musical Guilty Pleasure: Hinder - 'Lips Of An Angel'.
Formative Musical Experience: Listening to Duster for the first time and also being a part of Soulty Sultans. This helped provide a completely unlimited amount of freedom of expression for Mr Amish, converting the ability I had formed musically from a young age into a passionate representation of my soul and my existence.
Music has completely overtaken any other priority that once was… Kale smoothies ain’t nothing compared to the overwhelming joy presented towards ones self once listening back to something that has been formed from the depths of Mr Amish’s truth towards himself.
