\nCanadian rock band that recently had their new album, Busting Visions<\/em>, featured on Rolling Stone<\/em> magazine’s website and toured with Metric, Broken Social Scene, and
\nmany other amazing bands. Rolling Stone <\/em>magazine says: \u201cToronto’s
\nZeus play a rootsy, melodic brand of rock.\u201d But to me, they’re four guys I’ve
\nhad the privilege of knowing practically my whole life! I got the chance to
\ntalk to Carlin Nicholson, one quarter of Zeus, about music, school, and Zeus’
\ngoals for 2012.<\/p>\n
\ntime job?<\/p>\n
\nalways would. It took some time to get to the stage of being able to do music
\nalone and it required a lot of blind faith\u00a0over the years. I thought I
\nwould quit sometimes but deep down knew that there was nothing else I’d be
\nhappy doing and that I needed to give it longer to flower into a career.<\/p>\n
\nfriend\u2019s band, The Golden Dogs. We were all friends before the band formed. We
\nhad other bands and different things going on, but Zeus is a moment in time
\nwhere this combination of guys in a much larger circle got together and stayed
\ntogether.<\/p>\n
\nmusic\/singing?<\/p>\n
\na lot of time recording music, as well\u2014for myself and others.<\/p>\n
\ntracking a new record. This one isn’t even out yet, but I really want to have a
\nlong, casual time recording the follow up to Busting Visions<\/em>.<\/p>\n
\nis a crazy job to have chosen. But we keep each other laughing\u2014that\u2019s the key.<\/p>\n
\ninstruments?<\/p>\n
\neasier it comes. The more skill you acquire, the less you need to think about
\nwhen performing.<\/p>\n
