Behind the scenes with Mr. Completely-Canadian Rockers Share Your Thoughts

From blue-collar town of Campbell River, British Columbia, Canada is a working man rock and roll call Mr. computer entirely. His own critically acclaimed debut CD released entitled "Twice on Sundays" has been well received by the public who love the group mix of classic rock, blues rock and emotional pop.

In an interview with Jamie Robertson, singer energy detail many of the elements that make Mr. fully dynamic rock and roll which have become.

"Our band was originally called" Mes Sunday, "but there was already a band called" A Month of Sundays ", so out of respect for the musicians, it was decided a new name was in order, "said Jamie." So we asked our supporters to vote in several alternative bands names like "Sideline Poets", "Ten Beer Pretty "and" Stingray ", among others. The online votes were tabulated and the name Mr. Completely born."

But what are the origins of the name and why that name? Jamie said:

"We have added elements of the band members in the form of personnel (in fact, Jamie is the only original member of the Sundays of the month), including the extraordinary guitarist Richard Spencer, "Hot Rod" Campbell on drums and our host George Milutinovic on bass. So we completed our line. Thus, the name represents the image that we are a full band, are the family and have been together for some time. In fact, the special bond we share even extends to our families, we are lifelong friends and even when the band was sometimes still hang out. "

"Our song writing is also a group effort. I can bring a main idea or concept and we all have our area of competence incorporate different and all our ideas together to form the finished product. We meet once a week to practice, but our collaborative efforts that go beyond. So our music and our CD reflect this union of the mind. "

When asked what specific band members were not the group, Jamie said:

"We are all hard-working family men. I worked on the ferry before Christ for many years and have allowed the employment to concentrate on our business in the family sawmill. Richard and Rod are skilled carpenters and George works in a pulp mill.

Another question arises about the specific order of songs on her CD.

"Being an independent band, decide the order of the court and try to get the best flow, which is in the best way and shape the music for each song noteworthy in their way. "

In what is called an "indie" the time, Jamie said he feels the elements composing the word:

"Certainly, using different distribution methods, we like the control we have, we put all the hats, management, production, promotion and musicians. And we're ready to record another CD, but definitely have some financial aid, so in terms we are completely "independent". We have the resources or label so far, but would welcome the opportunity to be signed. "

"We have signed with A & R Select out of Hollywood and hopefully they can get some work in a soundtrack for movie or television series. This saves the band a lot of "knocking on doors" and frees us to concentrate on our music and families. But that does not mean we can not do our part to promote ourselves, on the contrary, my wife (Mrs. fully) works hard to organize our concerts, recording schedules, design and maintenance of our websites and MySpace and more. We would not be where we are without it on hard work, she is very dedicated to ensuring that we successfully "connected with Jamie.

Another important question is about the songs he writes and some of the influences and experiences of play in a band and play a live show.

"As soon as we finish writing a particular song and everyone is happy with his contribution, We test drive "and play live Gage public reaction and see if we have created the song to the best of our ability. Then there is the emotion and personal satisfaction of acting before a large crowd for the emotional reaction to the song. We feel we are offering a service to our fans, We love playing our music as much as they like to hear. The music helps us through difficult times and times may be improved already good. You can touch the lives of people with music on many levels. "

"This may sound silly, but some of our best performances are the benefits are many programs that we do locally. So not everything is money. We take great pleasure in our live performances and feed off the energy of our audience. Also, meet new people and conditions of such enthusiastic crowds that inspires us. I love meeting fans and listening to them how much they love our songs, or listen someone is using our song at your wedding for first dance makes me feel that what I am doing is making a difference in the lives of people. We also had the opportunity to open and share the stage with some of our favorite musicians, including Nazareth, Trooper and Honeymoon Suite, that only makes the experience much more pleasant and rewarding. "

Jamie also detailed some of the musical influences that the band is and what to expect to hear when they play Live:

"We will certainly play our singles" twice on Sundays "including" Walk Away "and our beautiful ballad" Before long time. "We also make versions of some of our favorite artists, so you could hear" Have You Ever Seen The Rain "or" Green River "by CCR, our version of" House Of The Rising Sun "as well as some issues of The Knack. We also have a great time playing" Ballroom Blitz "by Sweet, which is an amazing song live for the band."

So what's in store for the band, what does the future hold for This hard working band from the north of the border?

"In addition to touring Canada, we like to tour the United States. I think our musical predecessors have made it easier for Canadian bands to be hosted by America and Americans have opened their arms to Canadian artists. "

Thus as the interview closed, it is clear that Jamie and his bandmates not only sincerely love what they do, but like many music lovers to experience of his talents, his love of music they play and the joy and pleasure that comes with being a complete and coherent rock and roll, appropriately named Mr. Completely.
