Alex Turner Bandemonium Interview with DJs Sophie Kissin and Grace Zahrah

Why did you choose Alex Turner?
He is very prolific, consistently putting out good, well-finished albums, the brains behind the arctic monkeys and the last shadow puppets. And he has a big ego.

What is your favorite story/tidbit about the artist?
The Arctic Monkeys have been a a band since the boys were in high school and they decided to keep there dumb name when they grew up. Bad idea. Turner was on a plane sitting next to a woman and she asked him about his 50s greaser style and he told her he was in a band. She asked what band and he was too embarrassed to tell her the name.

 

What is your favorite song and why?
Favorite song… Impossible to say. On the latest Arctic Monkeys album, it’s fireside. But one of the best is also cornerstone off humbug.
