    Interview with Polish winner Veira

    Electropop with a good dose of rock vibe




    1) You have participated in the Emergenza Festival Edition 2017/2018. What made you decide to take part in it? 

    We decided to participate in Emergenza Festival beacuse we thought it would be a great adventure. Never thought we would win the country finals!

    2) As you approach the world final, what is your state of mind? 
    We are so excited, it's amazing to perform for that many people and to perform outside of our country.

    3) What is your best memory from your Emergenza experience? 
    The second day of grand finals. I (Veira) came all the way from other city, last minute to the announcement and I didn't think we would win. There were so many amazing bands, but they called us on stage !

    4) What's behind your band's name? Any specific meaning? 
    it's actually an anagram of a real name. My great great grandma Viera. I got the name after her but in Polish version(Weronika) so I decided to use it as a stage name but also didn't want it to be a real name so i changed the order of "e" and "i" and that's how it happened.

    5) If you had to choose a famous song that represents your band...which one would it be? 
     that's a hard question but I think it would be harder version of This is what you came for by Calvin Harris

    6) Can you tell us a funny story or anecdote about your experience on stage? And one which happened in backstage or during the preparation of a show? 
    We are one big anecdote but it's hard to tell any particular story, you have to come and get to know us!

    7) How would you describe your music? 
    It's Electropop with a dose of rock vibe in it. It's a cross between Calvin Harris and Rita Ora.

    8)  Before you go on stage, do you have a ritual or a good luck charm that goes everywhere with you? 
    I just don't talk to people right before the show, try to set my mind in the right spot.

    9) What is your dream gig? 

    My dream gig would be Main stage on Coachella

    10) What can audiences expect from one of your live performances? 

    Plenty of energy, dance vibes and a lot of fun!

    11) If you could invite a band or an artist at your party, dead or alive, who would it be?
    Beyonce !!! BeyHive for ever haha

    12) What are your short to medium term plans after the international final? 
    Realising our first album. Maybe some tour... 

     

    13) What inspires you when you are composing (musical inspirations or others) ? 
    My whole life is an inspiration. I get ideas from everyday life, sometimes it's a dream I had (my latest single literally was made in my sleep, I woke up and I had this melody and lyrics stuck in my head), sometimes people I get to know and their lives gives me inspiration and sometimes my life writes those songs.

    14) What question did I forget?
    You forgot to ask me if I like to dance in clogs... hahahaha!

      

    15) Why do you think you deserve to win the 2018 Festival edition? 
    I don't think it's proper to say somebody deserves to win. I mean everybody here has their own unique style, and came a long long road here by hard work so every single band deserves it, however it's not our choice so I just hope that our music and our vision will be the most appreciated.
