Perfect Blue Sky

Hi and thank you!
We really aimed to write true music which was inspired by our influences and find the peace and contentment which truly used to exist in music before the boundaries and expectations became templates to be acceptable. We didn't use time constraints on the tracks or try to make the album commercial and so trusted that it would reach the right people on its own merits. Also we love demos, before they get compromised so most of the ideas are the 1st ones.
We figured that for most people in life, they are chasing something which never quite transpires or arrives, thus always in a state of want. We actually have everything already and usually life takes a full circle to realise this. So hence our Perfect Blue Sky is always directly above, thru all weather.
It chose us really, as we loved the psychedelic philosophy of freedom bands like Floyd Big Brother Holding Company, Zeppelin etc. It's more about the art of music intelligence, just keeping it simple in discovery or get complicated with excitement... It doesn't really matter; we know why we chose this medium. It's not strict or opinionated, just real.
It is very central to us as we do share the whole discover of the music and lyric composition in our songs and performance. It also allows us to express both the masculine and feminine sides of art from both of us.
We are primarily the founders of PBS and can actually scale all the songs down to acoustic show in performance. However part of the gift of inviting guest players in either studio or live shows, is again the same creative freedom and interpretation which always gives the songs a new dimensions so they are very living art.
As it is our first debut album, we wanted to see the response first before heading out to different territories throughout Europe and the rest of the world. We haven't plans for the USA as yet; however we shall perform in Singapore, Australia and UK this Spring/Summer of 2015. We had a maiden voyage tour last year in Scandinavia which was a success with two guest musician artists from Janis Joplin's original Band, Big Brother Holding Company and our Aussie Keys phenomenon as well. So that was a good start!
Yes absolutely, we kind of figured it is all out there in nature's brew and sometimes people haven't the time to go visit or take time out, so hence, we bought nature's voice to the album instead.
It's a more generic approach about joining forces and supporting each other. A love story as you said!
We would say definitely Pink Floyd, Big Brother Holding Company, Led Zeppelin, Cosby Stills Nash & Young, 60's & 70's Rock
After the tour in Australasia and the European Summer, we will assess in the fall which festivals and areas of countries would be most suitable to perform. And also prepare some new stories (songs and experiments) and adventures to follow under this 'Perfect Blue Sky'
And thank you too for supporting us, really good interesting questions.
