The Hoosiers
Musiker - Pop

The Hoosiers are three men, but they were not always three…

Before they found the third member they were a two-piece, and before that they were two one pieces. “The math’s is quite simple,” proclaimed Irwin Sparkes, the outrageously named leader of the rabble, “It’s not rocket surgery”.

And it was not ‘rocket surgery’, it was music; and what The Hoosiers have created is a shiny great dollop of what the band like to call Odd-Pop. And it was not a lie for it was odd and it was pop.

“We would never be satisfied playing another song about drinking on a Saturday night,” Martin Skarendahl, the queerly-titled bassist, pipes up. “And at this stage in our writing we didn’t feel like subjecting the world to another love song,” interjects Irwin, who as ever, has more to say than anyone. “I don’t have just one genre of music in my tape collection” says Alfonso Sharland (what the deuce happened to all the Dave Smiths out there!?) who tragically, or beautifully (if you’re in that minority), resembles the mutant love child of Dave Grohl and Mick Hucknall. I didn’t grow up just wanting to be The Cure, Jeff Buckley, The Flaming Lips or XTC”. All acts The Hoosiers cite as influences.

“We didn’t always feel like just playing ‘brit-pop’ or whatever. This was a huge problem for us in terms of finding our sound. When we met Martin we all agreed that we wanted to cover a lot of space with our songs, not just keep it 4/4, foot to the floor, because that’s not how we feel all the time”.

“If we’ve got different sides we should show them,” states Martin; “otherwise we’re not playing all our cards, not breathing through both nostrils.”

“Showing all fours sides of our triangle?” proffers Alfonso. Quite. Four sides to a triangle that began like most musical greats: good friends who formed a band.
