Treasure – „Suffocation & Air“ EP + Exclusive Interview

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

Thank you for the oppurtunity, 

I’m Treasure, a musical artist from Hertfordshire!

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

I dropped „Suffocation & Air I“ on the 10th of April.

I aso have a new single called „Nothing Matters“  coming out on the 28th of April! It’s a light-hearted love song I receored in 2019.

3. Name 5 things we all should know about you as an artist?!

I started creating music with my secondary school freinds in a heavy metal band called „As You’re Falling“, a name inspired by a song by metal band Escape The Fate. These same friends feature in my live band!

I have no respect for genres, the weirder the better…

I used to go by the name OLWH (Only Losers Win Happily), but changed my name to reflect the way I felt about my music.

I’m still recording/writing music on the £59 acoustic guitar my dad bought for me at the age of 12.

My peace of mind is the most important thing when it comes to art. As soon as a projcet is released I detach from it and move on so I can live a little.

4. What can we expect from you in 2020?

I will be releasing „Suffocation & Air II“ at the end of august so stay tuned for the singles!

Music video’s and tour dates are on hold at the moment but I’ll be opening for Ralph TV on their UK Tour in August.

5. Do you have bad habits? A guilty pleasure you can’t seem to quit?

Binging Netflix series, eating a whole tub of ice cream, staying up planning imaginary music videos, scrapping new songs daily, the list goes on!

My guilty pleasure is a warm sticky toffee pudding with vanilla ice cream, I have the worst sweet tooth…

6. Besides music, do you have any special talents?

When I’m not making music and engineering for other artists, I spend my time working in a mental health hospital. Though this isn’t a talent per se, it is a skill that adds value to others besides myself.

7. Being on stage feels like….!

Polyamorous speed dating… Courting an entire crowd is something I wish I was good at.

I’m yet to play my first show as „Treasure the Band“ but my performances with „As You’re Falling“ were exhilarating, the frontman was a budding actor at the time and knew how to work a crowd.

8. Must-Have – and No-Go in your Wardrobe! – Favorite Fashion Brand and Fragrance?

My must-have is my yellow Degre 7 Ski Jacket, I picked it up at a charity shop a few years back and wore it extensively.

My No-Go would be any of my skinny jeans. I wore these spray-on skinnies a few months back and was instantly transported to my awkward and uncomfortable ‚emo‘ phase. Loose-fitting clothing makes my soul feel at home in this body.

My favorite brand would be Lucy Yak. I picked up my first pair of dungarees and Knew I had to buy another pair to shoot in!

Fragrance is easy, If you ever walk past me in town then you’ll get a whiff of Ralph Lauren Red.

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

In a world where thousands of new songs are released every day, why do you make music?

I create because it’s the way I live. Honest self-expression in a time where everything just boils down to the „Numbers“. If I can make one person understand the way I’ve felt during my time on this earth then my music has served its purpose.
