Talking about inspiration, who do you listen to?
Growing up in the ‘90s, grunge and metal were huge. I probably got into it through Rage Against The Machine, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden. Throughout my youth I was a metal kid and a hardcore kid.
My most memorable gig is Pressure Fest in Germany, one year Earth Crisis did a reunion show there, that was pretty special. I saw Machine Head in ‘99, that was my first big metal gig. I was straight in the mosh pit, that was incredible, and I also saw Ensign at CBGBs before it closed down, that was really special. When I’m at a gig I like to make sure other women are safe.
Which band would you like to have seen?
I’d have given anything to have seen Led Zep in the ‘70s - I don’t really have any interest in seeing them now, because it’s just not the same. I know that’s probably ageist and they’re probably still brilliant, but if I could go back in time and see them at their peak, that would be great.
What’s the best way to drink Bulleit?
I love an Old Fashioned! At the party I stuck to the Bulleit Old Fashioneds, I know I should have tried the others available but I know what I like.
