This week we had the chance to
catch up with Lost in Atlantis members Liz, Eric and Tim.
Originally from Phoenix, Arizona, the
members of Lost in Atlantis (LIA) are as unique as their fan base, which LIA
refers to as their “Little Evil Alien Bunnies.” Formed in 2008, LIA embodies an
entirely modern genre of music – Rocktronica. This genre was defined by their fans,
encompassing LIA’s style that combines catchy rock riffs and rhythmic pop
sounds complemented by electronic dance synths. LIA works hard every day to
produce fresh and unique pieces that continue to distinguish them in the
Rocktronica world.
Lost in Atlantis
Read our exclusive interview below, and discover 10 things you
didn't know about Lost in Atlantis!
GTG: Where was your live
performance on the Gimme the Gig II Focus Tour?
Liz: We played at the Cerritos mall in Anaheim, California; but we
are from Arizona, so we had to drive all the way out there.
GTG: While you guys were
there, did you get the chance to sit and try out the Ford Focus?
Liz: Heck ya we did! It was awesome; the guy (professional stunt
driver) took us on a spin around the track, it was so scary but so much fun. He
also showed us how the car parks itself, which is really cool because I can’t
parallel park. (laughs)
GTG: What is one thing about
you guys that your fans would never guess?
Eric: Liz is diabetic.
Tim: Me and Eric are brothers!
GTG: How did you guys come
up with the name for your band?
Liz: An alien came down and told us to name our band Lost in
Atlantis!
Tim: Well, Liz was just watching Discovery Channel and she saw a
special on Atlantis. So she came back and said “how about we throw in a lost in
there.” And that was pretty much it. (laughs)
GTG: What’s the most
embarrassing thing that ever happened to you on stage?
Liz : We had a show, and Eric put a fake mustache on my back, and
it looked like I had huge hairy mole on my back throughout the whole show.
GTG: What’s LIA’s favorite
thing to eat for dinner on the road?
Liz: Anything and everything, we learned not to be picky, so whatever
they give us. Oh In-and-Out!
Eric: Avoid beans and taco!
GTG: What’s your favorite album
of all time as a band?
Liz: Born Slave by Lady GaGa. (laughs)
GTG: Any guilty pleasures?
Liz: I love WOW (World of Warcraft)! Yeah I am a nerd. I had to
stop because I got sucked into it and it consumed my life, and I stopped
playing music. It’s such a wonderful game.
GTG: What country would you
most want to perform live in other than US?
Liz: Is the Moon a country? (laughs) Yes, definitely the Moon.
Eric: Or any other planets because it’s revolutionary! Ahh see
what I did there!
GTG: How does it work out
with 2 brothers (Eric/Tim) in the same band? Are there any friendly rivalries?
Eric: Basically, I control everything, so there’s no rivalry. I am
also better looking.
Tim: I agree.
