\"\"Line up changes can be pretty pivotal in a band’s career, especially with vocalists. However, in some cases, it can be a blessing in disguise. I’m going to put it out there right now and saying that We Are The Ocean<\/strong>’s latest move to a 4 piece is certainly a blessing in disguise. I’ve been playing new album ‘Maybe Today, Maybe Tomorrow’<\/em> a tonne and it’s easily one of the best of the year. Point is, take note of We Are The Ocean<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

We caught up with Alfie Scully who provided us with answers involving Alt. Country, Bob Marley and an evil genius as he tackled our “If I…”<\/strong> feature. Read on for some more answers from the man himself.<\/p>\n

If I could re-record one song it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0The Eagles \u2013 Life In The Fast Lane.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I could re-live one tour\/show it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0We did a tour last November supporting our friends The Blackout and in London we played The Roundhouse. I really love that venue so to play and be a part of such an awesome tour was great.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I had the chance to play one venue it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0We\u2019d like to be able to play at the Union Chapel one day.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I could play with one band it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0Foo Fighters.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

If I could play with any person living or dead it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0Paul Simon.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I could bring back any band that have split up, it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0Oasis.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I wasn’t playing music, I would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0An evil villain.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I could play a different genre it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0Alt. Country.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I could have written any song it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0Don Henley \u2013 Boys of The Summer.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I could have written any album it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0The Police \u2013 Outlandos d\u2019Amour.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I could headline any festival, it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0<\/em>Reading & Leeds Festival.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I could organise my own festival, the bands playing would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0The Beatles, R.E.M, The Police, Bob Marely, The Jackson Five, The Eagles, Led Zepplin. Huge…<\/em><\/p>\n

If I could play any other instrument, it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0Piano & Keys.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I could give one piece of advice to a new band, it would be…<\/strong>
Alfie:\u00a0<\/em>Do yourselves proud and don\u2019t get confidence confused with arrogance.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

‘Maybe Today, Maybe Tomorrow’<\/em> by\u00a0We Are The Ocean<\/strong> is out now on Hassle Records<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
