M.A: Life Long Lovers: Bird and Prey

If Foals and The Horrors were physically able to make sweet sweet musical love, their love child would be the rapturous five-piece from the Sunshine Coast known as Bird and Prey.
The talents of Joshua Aubry (vocals), Angus Duhram (guitar/keys), Beau Jenkins (drums), Beau Travers (guitar) and Adi Ross (bass) are gaining these boys a strong reputation in the local music scene, not to mention their cult like followers with coincidentally snazzy shoes. With catchy tunes, a strong look and having just release their first EP Costs of a Wasted Youth, this is a band to look out for.
Having been to my fare share of Bird and Prey gigs, I can vouch for everyone present...you will dance! They never fail to infuse their audience with a hysteric energy, rampant foot tapping and lyrical screaming. You then of course find yourself taking a cherished CD labelled 'mongrel' (that was thrown at your face during the gig), back to the safety of your bedroom to repeating the whole process again and dream with heartache that People Say was written about you. Not necessarily my anecdote.

Besides being in love with these boys as friends, I can understand (but still giggle to myself) when I see girls screaming (painfully) whenever Josh gets close to jumping off stage or when they get asked for autographs at the local shopping center. Agh, I love Bird and Prey Hype!
On a fashion note, oh my I am in paradise! Decked to the high heavens with statement blazers, button ups, bowler hats and on occasion Hawaiian shirts and/or matching 1940's inspired get ups, suspenders and all! There style is like every young bands- accidental and casually stylish. Who doesn't love a bunch of attractive lads who are musically talented and look amazing in the simplest of attire? Ahh hello, my dream?
Not to single anyone one out, but is it not agreeable that Joshua could very much be the sixth member of The Horrors! Apart from knowing him personally and his unconditional love for that band, he has the look down pat and the attitude to match. Vests and shiny shoes, oh Joshua, Farris is waiting :)
