b-sides on-air on location at Austin
City Limits 2019 we are here with the
amazing bones UK rosie and Carmen hi
hello welcome thank you for your time I
love that you have come in this ensemble
that was ready to go it was accidental I
just put this on and then she came down
wearing the same thing it was really
awkward happens every day
I can imagine yes unfortunately it's
somewhat temperate today it was
forecasted to be a bazillion degrees we
had we had a rule but our role of the
day was we weren't gonna complain about
the heat once cuz yesterday I swear to
God all we did was go out all night god
it's so hot so today we're like we're
not complaining about the heat we're
just gonna suck it up and deal with it
yes it's a wonderful day yeah that's
right yeah and you've been hanging out
at the festival we're just chatting
about the different things you saw
yesterday and so far Guns N'Roses
2 who just kind of not a surprise we
have you did you grow up with GNR fan or
was it just definitely you can't beat
guitars did not love / yeah total
inspiration for you what's your favorite
guitar solo for him what's on I mean
sweet child o mine would be the first
thing I ever learnt oh really so let's
just stick with that the congrats by the
way on this amazing debut album a lot of
the songs a lot of people are familiar
with what was the delay in terms of
getting us to put up out we just we were
waiting with the right opportunity we
never thought even like doing an album
was necessarily what we were gonna do we
were like to want to do an album I was a
bit old-fashioned now is that we
wouldn't do mobile to singles and then
it got to a point we've we've found a
label that we really love - will he
support us and they were separate
letters / let's put out the first
collection of stuff and you know in a
body and she always wanted a vinyl so
she was like we had to get a vinyl it's
really important yeah really important -
the first album was just like about us
just taking all we've done it's like
this is bones and then the next album
we've already
writing and it's kind of like the next
progression but it was really important
to us to kind of catalog that body of
work in something and the labor really
wanted to do right right because they
always say your debut album is basically
your life's work up to that the second
album yeah right because now it's their
expectations like okay you got a couple
years here we stopped we let you in the
day it came a day our first album came
out started right in the second one cuz
I don't want to do that thing we have to
wait like three years like you know we
want to start getting the songs ready
now yeah because some of the songs on
the album are like three years old or
four years old right yeah totally it was
it was yeah as we said it was just from
when we first started the band it's just
about putting those all together we
changed a few things we tried to make
them better
so we remastered them we kind of changed
a couple of choruses and just try to do
the best versions of those songs Carmen
I know that as a guitarist and getting
influenced by people like slash and
those kind of things what was it like to
work with Jeff Beck the legend himself
he changed the way guitars played so
being on tour with him and on citizen
was like having free lessons every day
yeah and he's incredible anything in
particular that he that he taught you or
showed you or that you saw and you were
like wow oh yeah
talcum powder when you sweat too much oh
I guess sweaty I put this amazing shot
of them with the talcum powder in the
air go Telkom powder in America is
like what athletes oh baby yeah yeah hey
man
buddy guy always uses that as well it's
like a little trick that they use yeah
what was it like touring with him
because I mean basically she recorded
the album with him he brought you on
toward open well he came he came to see
your show and then asked us to write the
record with him and then we were on toys
and within of us we'd written the album
we were on tour with him about three
months later just the whole thing was
like what the bloody hell is going on
this is insane
Rosie what have you ever thought about
the way things have come together in
your life because you met Carmen in a
bar right yeah it was it was by chance
and it was a sob story of a breakup have
you next thing you know you're at a
party and that Jeff duck walks by right
what are some other random things that
we did the first thing we ever did we
always do this kind of stuff first we
ever did as a band we move to America's
