One of the most honest, heartfelt, opinionated and funny interviews we have ever conducted! BareBonesMusic.com recently spoke with Jesse Barnett (vocals), Chris Rawson (guitar) and George Schmitz (drums) from the Orange County, CA based STICK TO YOUR GUNS. The guys discuss their latest record "The Hope Division" and how they came up with the title and the meaning behind it. Jesse speaks in detail about the message and meaning behind their first single "Amber" and talks about shooting the video for the song with director Scott Hansen. Jesse explains that even though he's not a big fan of doing videos the "Amber" video was a good experience and how their next video will be for the single "Where The Sun Never Sleeps." All the guys recall their influences and inspirations to become a musician and their music guilty pleasures. Finally a very honest discussion on pet peeves with current trends with bands particularly with "swoopy" hair bands, indie trends and bands that have nothing to say.
