The members of Sharkmuffin sent us these answers to our questions for this next installment of q and also a.

q: What is the first album you remember purchasing?
tt: Spice Girls.
nk: Spice Girls.
kd: Ace of Bass.
q: What is the last album you purchased?
tt: Fuzz‘s II.
nk: A live Buzzcocks 7.”
kd: David Bowie‘s Black Star.
q: What is your favorite artist/band to see live?
tt: GWAR & Thee Oh Sees.
nk: There are so many friends’ bands that I love seeing live in NYC so it’s hard to pick and choose. In terms of bigger acts, I’d probably go with Ty Segall.
kd: It would either be Tame Impala for musical content, or The Flaming Lips for entertainment value.
q: What is your favorite venue (in NYC, if applicable)?
tt: Shea Stadium.
nk: Shea Stadium is a really fun DIY space to play.
kd: If it’s strictly for sound, Radio City, and you will never have a problem seeing the stage. For playing, I thought Mercury Lounge was pretty darn fun.
q: What piece(s) of culture are you really really excited about right now?
tt: Drive-thrus.
nk: The variety of specialty pizza places opening up in NYC.
kd: Honestly, I think the things I’m most excited about are the artistic and musical projects that my friends are doing.
q: Anything we should know about your latest project (whatever that might be)?
tt: My new dream is for our next tour van to also be a breakfast food truck where we would sell actual sharkmuffins (variety of flavors with guitar picks as fins) and the sharkmuffin drink (chocolate wine + cold brew iced coffee) along with our recorded merchandise.
nk: we are releasing a flexi-disc on Little Dickman records this Friday, Februay 12th at the Lost Room in LA featuring Lost Boy ? Davey Jones on guitar and Looms‘s Sharif Mekawy on drums. Next week we record our second LP, which will be our first album with our kick-ass drummer Kim Deuss.
kd: This is the first time I am getting to write drum parts and record with Sharkmuffin and it’s really fun to be creative and try to help shape these songs.
