Cha Cha is a trio of freshly hatched indie darlings from London. Coming fresh from recording the video for their debut single ‘PhonoGraphic Love’ Shout4Music managed to hang onto their coat tails and drag them in our virtual office for a wee chat. And what did this bright young indie pop band out of concrete city have to say…Have a look then!
Hello Cha Cha, welcome to the imaginary sofa of Shout4Music. How’s this week treating you?
Eye illnesses aside we’re doing great! We just finished filming our first music video for our single ‘PhonoGraphic Love’ which was fun and should be ready very soon.
Quick slice of background information on the band for our readers please who are unfamiliar with you…
We’re a three piece from London via Brighton and have been going for just under a year. Our main influences come from Funk, Rock and Pop, anything from Parliament to The Strokes. We’ve just finished our first album “We Are..” and are getting ready for a busy year!
What is Cha Cha’s sound like in four words…
We’ve got the funk
So, are you looking forward to the imminent single launch for ‘PhonoGraphic Love’ at 93 Feet East in London?
Yeah it’s pretty cool to have a party for the single; we’ve got a couple of our friends playing (Lyrebirds) and can’t wait for the show.
Apart from the obvious attention from the media that you hope to attract to the launch, will there be a large contingent of friends and family to help you celebrate the occasion?
There will be a good bunch of our mates and family who have seen us progress from the beginning, so it will be ace to show them where we’re at right now.
The finest moment in Cha Cha’s existence so far?
I think this would probably be playing a pretty awesome gig at The Fly near Oxford Circus last summer. It was a dead night, but just before we went to get on stage suddenly the place got packed and we had a raucous show!
Using the letters of your band name, name something you love each letter e.g Churchill, Hicks etc…
Chaminda Vaas (Sri-Lankan Cricketing Legend), (Jimi) Hendrix, and astronauts. Chilling, hats and Albert Hammond Jnr.
Using the letters of your band name, name something you despise for each letter…
Councils, herpes and anthrax. Craftyness, Humpty Dumpty and aeronautics.
The best thing about being a musician, is simply…
Getting to play music everyday
If the music industry has taught you anything it is…
Don’t trust the music industry!
