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.’
