Blender catches up with Ryan Malcolm, front man of Canadian Indie band – Low Level Flight. Read on as Ryan spills the beans on Low Level Flight, their new record Urgency as well as himself...

 

Blender: Tell us about the making of this new record called Urgency. What were some of the themes that were kept in mind for exploring purposes?

 

Ryan: The new record, is much heavier than the first. We have been writing for almost a year while touring so we have grown not only as a band but as artists. The themes for the music are dark.

 

Blender: Who would you guys love to perform or record with, past or present?

 

Ryan: There are so many bands we respect and love. To name a few, Muse, Coldplay, Bloc Party, Nirvana.

 

Blender: Who are the best bands that Low Level Flight has toured with so far and why?

 

Ryan: The best bands we have toured with, would have to be Finger 11, Bon Jovi and Sam Roberts

 

Blender: What have the last couple of months been like for you guys?

 

Ryan: The last couple months have been insane, with all the travelling, festivals and recording...it has been the best part of my career to date.

 

Blender: After so many gigs, studio sessions and songwriting binges, how has Low Level Flight changed as musicians?

 

Ryan: We have not changed as musicians, but we have become more focused as artists.

 

Blender: To date, what is Low Level Flight's proudest accomplishment both on and off stage?

 

Ryan: Proudest moment – would be having our first show and release in India. Proudest moment off stage would for me be Playing Juhu Beach in an impromptu show.

 

Blender: Do you get bombarded on the streets by fans or if not fans then old people?

 

Ryan: People come up to us yes, old and young (Laughs)

 

Blender: I remember you guys whining about no great sex in India (correct me if I'm wrong), but Is Low Level Flight's life a whirl of sex and drugs and rock & roll?

 

Ryan: (Laughs) no we are not into drugs or the typical Rock &Roll lifestyle. I'm not sure who complained (laughs)....But the women we met in India we amazing, classy and gorgeous.

 

Blender: If Low Level Flight is not on stage or in the studios, then what is means of Chilling out?

 

Ryan: Chilling out for us would be grabbing a case of beer, and sitting on a patio doing absolutely nothing. Phones off etc

 

Blender: Is there anything Low Level Flight would like to say to all the Low Level Flight loyalists all over the world?

 

Ryan: We just want to say, to all of our new and old fans...Thank you so much for your support and we will see you in a city or town or village near you soon!
