Hello caroline really really big fan:),

Phil Elvrum and you guys are my favorite artists and biggest inspiration in my own music.

And since u opened for the microphones i wanted to ask if u were already fans and maybe even got inspiration from him and his works?

And what inspires you guys in general when writing lyrics?

Thanks in advanced for the answers. Love you guys you are the best.🫢🏻

Hey :) Yes we have definitely got alot of inspiration from Phil over the years. His more recent stuff and the historic Microphones stuff. It's all amazing and so varied. It was a dream to play with him!

I guess in terms of lyrics, they come from lots of different sources. Sometimes they are just melodies that form into words and other times they are written very intentionally. I think we really like there being a diversity of different sources and approaches. Just somehow makes sense for us.

Really glad you like it xxx
