Sheppard

Before they even released their debut EP, Brisbane indie-poppers Sheppard toured the world. We ask how that happened…

Sheppard are a glossy, hooky new six-piece, featuring the Sheppard siblings George, Amy and Emma, as well as buddies Michael, Jared and Jason. Their debut EP appeared in August, but they’ve already accrued 75,000 Facebook fans, appeared in a Hollywood horror flick, and played festivals in New York, London and Johannesburg.

We ask the frisky young crew how on earth all this happened, as well as discussing their live show and their forthcoming trip to India. Also, they deliver their addictive earworm ‘Hold My Tongue’ live in the studio.
