Apr 03, 2009 Up Close with San Diegons and The Soft Pack

The Manchester sounding San Diegons, The Soft Pack, let us probe their minds and film their sound check at the Lexington, whilst gigging in London. Gill gets to grips with their party reputation, their influences from the great Manchester sound, touring with Franz Ferdinand and whether knitting is cool.

At the sound check at the Lexington, Islington, we record stonking renditions of Nightlife and Brightside- played specially for yours truly. 

The band have been together since 2005, formerly The Muslims, members include Matt Lamkin, Matty McLoughin, Dave Lantzerman and Brian Hill. Their influences include Standards, Joy Division, The Smiths, The Falls, The Buzzcocks. The sound coming out of a rocking San Diego music scene, so these guys are in good company with crocodiles, Waves, Kill Me Tomorrow and Nine Marches.

Check them out at myspace.com/thesoftpack.

They will be back touring Britain very soon this spring/summer!

    Gill, I think you are a good interviewer. You still need Brian and Me on the show though :)
