And I'm sitting here right now with Noah Dakho, the singer and songwriter for the band.
How are you?
- I'm good.
How are you?
- Very good.
Can you tell us about the band?
How did it start?
- So, the guitarist, Nathan, him and I were in a high school band together.
Actually, I was in that band with a drummer as well, Eric.
They kicked me out, (laughs) so that didn't go very well.
(Satori laughs) But a few years later, I reconnected with Nathan and we started playing together, and we went through a few bass players and now we have Hayden, who's a phenomenal musician.
- [Satori] And what kind of style would you say your band captures?
- [Noah] Rock and roll.
It's lighter.
It's not super heavy.
- [Satori] Anything you'd like to leave our audience with?
- I think your voice is just as valuable as everyone else's, so just say what you have to say.
- Thank you very much.
It was a pleasure, Noah.
- Thank you.
It was a pleasure being here.
