Decades - Stories In Sound: Decades
25 May 2016 // An interview by Shade
Decades are a 4 piece rock band from Christchurch. Formerly called Ashei, they have changed their sound and are headed in a new fresh direction.
Check out this episode of Stories In Sound where we discuss everything about the band, the sound and name change, and get to hear/see them perform 2 of their songs acoustically.
They have just come off tour and have got a tonne coming up so be sure to go and follow them to keep up with it all.
About Decades
Members Emma Cameron (vox/guitar), Liam Muir (guitar), Daniel Perry (drums) and Curtis Booth (bass) have spent the last several years focussing on honing in on their unique sound, independently releasing a scattering of singles and music videos to varying levels of local success, playing as many local shows as they could muster around their full-time day jobs, and supporting larger national and international acts such as Midnight Youth (NZ), Villainy (NZ), The Ataris (US), and Scary Kids Scaring Kids (US).
In 2013, Decades knew they were at a point of ‘go big or go home’, and so they began to envision what the next couple of years should look like, and how they were going to reach these milestones. Early 2013 saw Decades lock in with producer Matt Bartlem of Loose Stones Studios in QLD to create their debut record. Faced with the many obstacles of an independent band, the band launched - and achieved - a $10,000USD indiegogo crowd funding campaign in mid-2013, to head over to the studio in Australia to complete a 5-track EP.
