CL: If it wasn't for a music career, what would each band member be
                        doing right now?

                        TC: If it weren't for the music business, Sean would be a business owner.
                        Being a musician in a band, Sean says, ‘I have put so much effort into the
                        band  and  the  business  and  have  passed  up  on  several  opportunities
                        because I couldn't put the effort and time needed to rock another business
                        because of  preparing to  go  on  tour,  schedules,  and needing  a flexible
                        schedule to be available for the band, rehearsals, etc. A lot of people don't
                        know  that  being  in  a  band  it's  probably  10%  playing  music  and  90%
                        working on the band.’

                        CL: How has the pandemic affected each band member individually?

                        TC: We all have lost our day jobs due to the pandemic. Sean is a drum
                        tech for The Cult, Tower of Power, and Sevendust. All tours canceled and
                        nobody knows when we will get back to work. It totally sucks!

                        CL: Have The Chimpz done any shows via a live stream? If not, why?

                        TC: We usually do a live FB feed of our rehearsals. So, if you are dying to
                        see live music, look us up on Facebook and Instagram.

                        CL: Did you have any shows canceled due to the pandemic?

                        TC: Luckily, we did not have to cancel any live shows due to the pandemic

                        CL: How would you describe your style?

                        TC: Sean describes The Chimpz as ‘powerful modern hard rock with great
                        hooks and a dash of hip hop.’
