disBAND: Katie And Lisa

January 12th, 2009

[Watch a new episode of disBAND tonight @ 6:30pm ET. Check out what Katie of the duo Katie And Lisa had to say about her experience on the show!]

Hello everyone!

I really hope you enjoyed the episode and had party fun times watching it! I know it must looks like we are crazy weirdo creeps but in real life, we are. So thank you MuchMusic for portraying us in such a realistic manner!

This in all honesty was a great experience and for all you musicians out there I highly suggest you try to give this a shot. Of course you have to be prepared with all the ups and downs that come with this, just think of it as a roller coaster because that’s what I did and boy you got to love that wind-in-your-hair, no-gravity feeling!

I am really glad the judges didn’t want to rip our heads of with nasty comments from the depths of hell, rather I thought their comments were very fair. I really felt that we did a good job pulling off the performance with the new band and the short time we got to do it in.

As you can probably see in the episode Lisa and I were pulled out of our comfort zone in more ways then one. We did after all say we were up for a change and my dear Lord we got one. We are so used to just the two of us playing shows that when Greig threw us 5 new musicians we nearly combusted! We tried to take it like the flying unicorns we truly are and I am glad we decided to stick with it because the end result was like magical fairy dust, truly marvellous.

Lately we have been working on improving our sound. We are practicing a little harder and taking our music a little more seriously. We have some new recording that should be up on our MySpace as well as some YouTube videos so look out for those!

I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for being given this great opportunity I really truly had an awesome time. Greig and Matt you guys were great to work with and gave us a lot of insight of the music business, we learned a lot from you guys and really enjoyed your company! I also want to say thank you to my lovely producer and the nice intern that helped on our shoots as well as all the camera girls and guys. I can’t forget our makeover team and our photographer, I am sorry if there was any miscommunication between us. I do want to thank you for putting the time aside to help with the show (This last paragraph is the beginning of my speech for the 2010 MuchMusic Video Awards).

Lots of Love,
Katie

P.S.: Also a big thank you to all our supporters out there – you guys are great!
