The 140 character-forming interview...
@hotpress: Hi Winston, how are you today?
@nightbeds: I’m in Northern California, I’m in the Sierra mountains. My parents own a fishing cabin up here
@hotpress: Looking forward to EP?
@nightbeds: Really looking forward to it, yeah. Can’t wait
@hotpress: You had a gig in the Workman’s Club a while ago? How was that?
@nightbeds: It’s a really cool club. The Dublin gig was fantastic. If the Electric Picnic is as good, I won’t complain
@hotpress: Must have been great to get such positive reviews of ‘County Sleep’
@nightbeds: It’s really humbling, I don’t really keep track of those things, but it’s nice to get
@hotpress: You don’t read reviews?
@nightbeds: I’ve only read two or three. It just makes me feel uncomfortable
@hotpress: Your voice has been compared to Jeff Buckley - how do you feel about that?
@nightbeds: I had to kind of figure out who he was. But he’s got pipes I could never match, so to be mentioned in the same breath is cool

@hotpress: What’s it like living in such an iconic music town as Nashville?
@nightbeds: We formed the band there. There’s a vibe that really resonates with me, it’s cool
@hotpress: What’s the best festival you’ve ever done?
@nightbeds: We did Utrecht in the Netherlands, and we did Forcastle in Kentucky which was pretty cool. We like festivals, they’re kinda wild,
@hotpress: Who’s the most eccentric character you’ve met so far
@nightbeds: I wouldn’t know. I never get invited to the after-parties!
