Marvin Gaye brought me a history lesson – I didn’t really know about the Vietnam war
B That’s where I realise it you see
We accept all this and we do our best to get to the people who don’t usually get the opportunity to see this kind of music, you know. So we use all the aspects of what’s available to us to make sure that the music goes out to the people.
CM Yeah, I know because I have read a comment which stayed in my mind about you feeling like less of an entertainer and more of a healer. And I thought that was fantastic because that kind of vibe seems to be returned to you and the band a lot from comments I read on the website all the time.
I meet these people – so-called “fans” who I’d like to call my friends. And basically these people come to you and they let you know this. They’ll tell you things like “your music was the soundtrack of my life while my brother was dying of AIDS and he wanted me to be here today. I didn’t really know your band until I was caring for my brother in the hospital and he made sure before passing that I should come and meet you and I’m so glad that I have done”.
When you get things like that happen in your life – when a kid tells you that you’ve actually been their direction, their inspiration, I feel the same way as I felt when I was younger. I feel that people like Stevie Wonder brought me a healing, brought me a teaching. Gil Scott-Heron made me realise a bunch of things in life – he may be hurting himself right now and hopefully his music and other people may be able to heal him.
CM So when you’re in front of some of these audiences, a lot of the music’s very danceable but it’s much more than a party going on out there isn’t it?
I fell in love with vocal performances from a young age
B Well, I know the party’s important because I’m a clubber.
