Name, where are you from?
I’m EFÉ and I’m from Dublin! 


Describe your style in three words?
Green, granny, comfortable.


What’s the best gig you’ve ever been to?
I think it might have been Rex Orange County. It was soooo good! The DJ played 'Blonde' all the way through and the whole crowd sang along. I felt like I was surrounded by like-minded people, which was a cool feeling and Rex’s whole set was soooo damn good.


If you could be on the line up with any two bands in history?

Soccer Mommy - She has recently become a huge inspiration music-wise so that would be so cool.
 Phoebe Bridgers - Just to probably hang with her in the green room to be very honest, she seems like such a cool person!

Which subcultures have influenced you?

I’ve been influenced by so much. I’d say anime/bedroom/indie culture has influenced me a whole lot and pretty much shaped the type of person I am today.

If you could spend an hour with anyone from history?
Tyler, The Creator. He just seems like he knows what he’s doing and he’s super creative which is so inspiring to see.



Of all the venues you’ve played, which is your favourite?
My friends held a fundraising event. The venue was an art studio and was super intimate with a cute disco ball. Loads of my friends were there and the atmosphere was impeccable!

Your greatest unsung hero or heroine in music?

LAMP! They’re a band from Japan and I literally binged their music for weeks straight, their music is amazing. their use of melodies and harmonies just works extremely well.
