So how did you decide on creating the sound?įitz: We definitely wanted to make a big step and a half forward from our first record to our second record, More Than Just a Dream. PB: Your sound has this retro feel to it, but is still rooted in the alternative and indie sound of what you could called modern music. It naturally happened for us that we were getting all these opportunities and it seemed like the path was moving in the right direction. Because of my former experience with bands I knew that when you find something like that you tend to want to stick with it and play more together and do more things. When we finally met and sang together, we gelled. It was a really a really nice approach to the soulful factor of the sound. The song that really sold it for me was called “Darkest Street.” I loved the way the horns blended with his voice. Then I got the phone call from Fitz and heard the first few songs off the EP. I was doing things on and off, but I had just stopped for a bit, I needed a break. Noelle Scaggs: It’s true, when Fitz and I met it was because of our saxophonist James King, who recommended me for the very first show. We quickly put the band together, had one rehearsal, played a show and haven’t looked back since six years later. Those first few songs were written out of a need to not lose my mind. Music is the remedy that soothes the soul. ![]() Pop-Break: What first inspired you to start Fitz and the Tantrums?įitz: Honestly, it was heartbreak. They spoke about how they developed their sound, which Motown artist they would want to perform with, and where that awesome name came from. I was able to speak with Michael and Noelle before they played their amazing set at The Governors Ball. Everyone in attendance was singing along, and even the security guard got in on the action and helped get the crowd to start clapping along. Seeing them live was an experience in itself. Fast forward a few years later and I am at one of the biggest festivals singing along with Michael Fitzpatrick, Noelle Scaggs, and the rest of the Tantrums as they broke out hits “Break the Walls” and “The Walker,” from their latest album More Than Just A Dream. It sounded like the kind of music I grew up listening to mixed with what I listen to now. They were unlike anything else that I have listened to before. Even their name was cool and it perfectly fit the music they made. I don’t even remember what station it was, but I do remember “Money Grabber” coming on and I had to stop what I was doing. I was doing the dishes while listening to Pandora. I heard their song “Money Grabber” the same way most people my age find new music, online. The last time I can actually remember hearing a song for the first time was when I first heard a song by Fitz and the Tantrums. ![]() When I was younger I would hear a song for the first time in the car or in a movie and you would forever associate it with that moment. 53Money grabber 54Don't come back anytime, I've already had your kind.In this day and age it’s becoming harder to remember when you actually first heard a specific song.
