Take Two Has Always Been Right Here

Although only have been formed just two years ago, Take Two is taking Singapore by storm. The Indie Pop four-member band consists of vocalist, Paddy, guitarist, Peng Sing, bassist, David, and drummer, Jeryl.

The quartet have performed at different parts of the world, including Malaysia, Thailand, China, and even Spain. The band released their debut EP, 'Pairs', last April and two singles from the album have been featured so far, 'Always Been Right Here', and 'In Your Arms'. As our Artiste of the Week, we asked Take Two some random questions so we can get to know them better. 

1. What was the most interesting photo you have ever taken?

We took a bunch of portraits through mirrors for one of our first ever band photo shoots. John is in it though, but he has left the band. Feels bad man :(

2. What have you always wanted? Did you get it?

This is a tough one... I think we've always wanted more time to spend with loved ones, with each other to play LAN games and make music, but there's never enough time I suppose...

3. What was the last lie you told?

I think we tweeted that we were going to play our next EP launch at the National Stadium. Sorry guys, it's not happening. We lied.

4. What is the best compliment you have ever received?

One of our fans messaged us on Instagram that she really missed home while she was on an exchange program overseas. On her flight back, she listened to our EP. When the plane was landing in Changi Airport, Always Been Right Here came on. It's a song about going places and realizing home's where you want to be. We were all really touched and amazed at how music can reach out to people in such personal ways.

5. If you could be any age for a week, what age would that be?

I think we all want to be like 16 years old. Just a bunch of rascals playing video games, saying politically incorrect things, and just not worrying about adulting for a while.

6. Are there any events/gigs you guys will be performing at in the near future?

Yes! We actually have 4 shows in December, and we'll be playing new stuff. YEP NEW STUFF BABEHHHH so please come!
