Frequently Asked Questions

Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

We both grew up listening to David Bowie (thanks dad!) so we are very inspired by him and a lot of rock music. We both love listening to a wide variety of folk music too and love how it brings people together to dance and sing! Couldn't pick one song as the greatest of all time - there are so many great songs out there!


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

We started gigging together around 2012, under the name of Caleb Major. Stephen wrote a lot of his own songs which Emma added string parts and vocal harmonies to, we also played lots of covers by The Beatles, Rod Stewart and Thin Lizzy. We gigged around many pubs and venues around the UK, in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Newcastle and Liverpool.


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

We love performing and being able to play at events and different venues is always an honour.
