Matija – „The Road“ + Exclusive Interview

Hello, thank you for your time, please introduce yourself in a few words!

Hello, we are the german indie band “Matija” , that’s Jan on guitar and keys, Sami on drums and Matt, Vocals and Recorder. We’re from Munich and we adore pretzels with obadza, a local cheese cream from Bavaria!

Please give us an update about – new single, new album, tour dates, new videos?!

We are currently working on new material, wich should come this summer. Our next tour will take place in autumn, containing shows in Germany, Austria and Switzerland

Name 5 things we all should know about you as a band?!

We believe in patience and hard work. We adore pretzels.. ah shit. We are massive fans of Summer Festivals. We started out as school cover band. Somebody plugged off the main power at a school show and put on Black Eyed Peas. Matija is a slovenian name, for Matt.

What fashion style or brand would best describe your music?

Indie Alternative Pop Rock (Too long..) Short: Hybrid Indie

What’s your songwriting process?

Always different. Sometimes one member comes up with an idea that’s almost finished, the next song originates from a 90 min jam, you just never know.

If you could change anything about the industry, what would it be?

Make one spotify stream worth 4 cents and not 0,0004 cents.

Tell us more about your songs! Topics! Message!?

There is no concrete message. We want to enable people to walk into an emotional playground at our live shows. You can decide what you want to feel or believe in when you listen to our music.

That’s due to our multiple influences where we get the ideas for songs from.

A question you’d like to answer, but never been asked in an interview before?! + Answer pls

Would you like to support Foals on tour? Yes. hahahaha
