People don’t consume music like that any more, but we try and do that in our live shows. Create a flow, from end to end and has a story. “In my ideal world, we could do something like Pink Floyd could did in ‘The Wall”. It’s about writing a song about your girl friend, but your girlfriend is Amphetamine.It’s because who we are and how we write that we can take it to darker places.” “It has the sax backing up the bottom end. You can’t put our music into any particular category and that’s something that I really like about it.By drawing from a lot of different genres and pulling a lot of different styles together, we think we have come up with something unique.”Īnother track “Hell” is written for lap steel guitar. “It’s not something we set out to create, it’s something that happened with the way that we write. I wanted to look at the “Melbourne Edge,” with the music of “Cameron Holmes and the Blues Dudes.” I don’t know where it comes from, but I write general themes and then I fill it out from there.” “I like to ‘free write,’ which is a technique that a lot of spiritualists use. People tend not to listen to an album from end to end now.Ĭam likes to sit back, relax and hopefully the mood will come to write a song.
“People consume music in a different way. The tracks will be individual enough to be placed on Spotify (or similar)and the Band will be producing an Ep. “Our music is a total melting pot of styles,’ Cam explains.”Our drummer comes from Spook The Banshee (a metal band),the bass player has played a lot of stoner rock, Cam has done everything “from classical to heaqvier stuff which you could call Prog,” the Sax player can play everything and the harmonica player who has played blues and folk his whole life.”Ĭam is taking a three prong approach to the music.
I had been sent a copy of their new single “Warhorse,” which I might best describe as “hardcore blues.” I was not far off the mark. The unique sound of the band has been described as “Blues with a Melbourne twist.”Īnd yes, I can hear that unique sound we sometimes tag special bands, that produce a blend that Melbournians see as their own. Cam from “Cameron Holmes and The Blues Dudes” was proud of what the band has achieved.He can be.
