MEMO’s Q & A ‘3’ featuring THE PEARLY SHELLS

1. The Pearly Shells are launching a new album as part of their upcoming show at MEMO, tell us how the new album came about? What can we expect to hear?

This album is in part inspired by the cartoons we watched as kids, the old ones like early Mickey Mouse and The 3 little Bops which were set to jazz music with wild, impossible stuff happening and people dancing and a simple story. Great stuff to unleash on children. There’s a little bit of those cartoons in this record. With that in mind we plan on having a lot of fun playing the new songs ( and some old ones ) this Friday night!

2. Your live shows are renowned for having a few high energy dance numbers in them where people love to get up and dance… Can we expect a similar atmosphere for this show?

Our new album is called “Went down swingin”  and it was written with the dance floor in mind, so yes!. We are launching it at our favourite dance hall, the “Home of happy feet” Memo Music Hall in St Kilda. We always have a good time there.

3. What’s next for The Pearly Shells? 

We are touring the new album round Victoria, in Tassie and up the east coast from early next year.
