They may put up a united front as Melbourne indie-twee-pop-punk collective Kissing Booth, but Grace Lawry and Luke "Thommo" Thomas have incredibly different musical backgrounds; each pursuing their love of the art-form until their paths crossed. Prior to a show in Sydney, we spoke about the pop scene in Auckland and the punk scene in Tassie; as well as the ties that bind the creative force behind Kissing Booth together.

Kissing Booth's debut album, Never Settle, is out this year. Their EP "Self-Titled 4 Track" can be downloaded here: http://kissingbooth.bandcamp.com

Across over ten years of going to shows, I've met countless fascinating people that are joined together by the fact I love their music. This is a medium in which I look to find out the bigger picture, the extended story and the journey that brought them to where they are. No genre or topic is off limits. I'm David James Young - and all my friends are in bar bands.
