Just how people respond to a band and its music depends a lot on the reason or reasons why that music is made. Sometimes songwriters have a point to prove, a moral to teach, anger to vent, a style or genre to construct and sometimes it’s all about the energy, vigour and connections to make. Vintage Trouble is, it seems, about engendering a feeling that the band is in a symbiotic relationship with their fans and that all components of that relationship are equally important. It’s so good to know that the band members don’t see themselves as remote from everything and everyone else.
