Jake, Dr. Green, England, lead singer, songwriter and fountain of energy for the Caballeros, a 60s-throwback band from Perth, Australia, explains the highs and lows of leading a band.
Dr. Green walks us through the beginnings of playing as an underage musician on the club circuit to the management musts of running a band of creative artists.
He speculates on the future of music and sees his band as filling a niche for high energy, party rock. A future where music is available and purchased, directly from the artist via bootleg tapes and sound tracks.
Dr. G covers it all, linking his stories with tales of the early Sonics, to Motorhead, Eskimo Joe, David Bowie and Lorde.
He leaves us with this wisdom – never forget to “Iron your Shirt!”
