It was a cold rainy night in Chicago when I made the trek to catch Loquat's gig at the Hideout in Chicago. While I've heard both of the band's full-length albums I've never been able to see them live since they tend to stay close to their roots in San Francisco. The anticipation was great and my nervousness couldn't be quelled by a shot of whiskey. Luckily, although not to my surprise, the entire band was fun to be around. As we entered their tour RV the vibe was immediately familial.

Kylee (vocals/guitar), Anthony (bass), Ryan (keyboards), Earl (guitar) and Chris (drums/backing vocals) sat down and answered some questions - some the answers to which were even surprising to each other.

Here is part 1 of the Chubby Jones Pop Up Interview with Loquat.
