Posted on by Amy Reitnouer

Artist: The Outdoor Type
Hometown: Melbourne, Australia
Latest Album: On My Mind (single) & self-titled EP (out now via Nettwerk)
Personal Nicknames (or Rejected Band Names): I’ve never had a nickname — that I’m aware of — but I’ve had my fair share questionable band names: Cacophony, Skirvy Jack, Radio Star. Those aren’t rejected names either.

If Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, and Mohammed were in a band together, who would play what?
Mohammed – lead vocals
Buddha – bass guitar
Krishna – lead guitar
Jesus – drums

If you were a candle, what scent would you be?
Nag Champa. Best scent. 

What literary character or story do you most relate to? 
Probably Rob Fleming from Nick Hornby’s book, High Fidelity. 

How many pairs of shoes do you own? 
Three pairs, I think — I’m pretty economical with my footwear. I spend 90 percent of my time in my boots.

What's your best physical attribute? 
Definitely not my feet — I have weird feet.

Who is your favorite Bruce: Willis, Springsteen, or Lee? 
The Boss, of course.

Animal, mineral, or vegetable? 
Vegetable

Rain or shine?
Sunshine

Mild, medium, or spicy?
Spicy
