Me: We are here with Matt Baird from Spoken at the
Wherehouse, Spoken has
been around for seven years now and has had several
lineup changes, what are
your feelings on the band as a whole right now?
Matt: I feel like we're starting over, like we
are in a good situation. we
are looking for a new record label and doing a lot of
touring. There are a
lot of changes but they're good changes.
Me: How would you describe the style of music
spoken plays right now?
Matt: You know, just rock and roll . . .
Zach: What would you say are some of your musical
influences?
Matt: Bon Jovi, Metallica, right now Hoobastank,
Blindside's record just
came out. its not really an influence but its a good
record.... A little bit
of everything, we listen to country, rock, just
everything.
Me: What are your plans as a band for the future?
Matt: You know we just want to be obedient to
God and do what he wants us to
do. If God says we are done tomorrow, we're fine with
it. we've seen
thousands of lives changed, our lives have been
changed by it. We just want
to share Jesus with people even if its not through
spoken, we just want to
share Jesus in our every day live and in our walk.
Gosh, the future, we're
going to continue to tour, and continue our search for
a record label,
continue writing new music. who knows?
Me: If you could say one thing really quick to
someone that hasn't been to a
Wherehouse show what would you say?
Matt: I would say the bands our treated with the
utmost respect here, they
are great people to work with, great sound, great
lighting, and it makes it
all the more fun. Its a great time.
Me: Cool thanks for coming out and playing.
Matt: Thanks for having us, God bless.
