August 6, 2012 in Exclusive Features, Music

We always love to introduce you to some very talented individuals. Today we have a very talented group from London by the name of VISITOR! Check out this FKN Exclusive with VISITOR and see how they started out in the industry! Also listen in to some of their latest songs!

Group Name: VISITOR
City/State: London
Website: www.visitor.fm

So tell us a little bit about yourselves?

- VISITOR is Kyle Gibson and Lucas Gianello, we met at school and formed a band and kept it running in various forms up until now. Originally from Australia, we have travelled and worked in various countries and are now based in London. Kyle sings, Lucas plays guitar, and we both do everything else towards writing & producing our own music up until a rough sounding stage. We then enlist the help of Diamond Cut, an Australian producer and work with him to finish the songs off. We mostly work on music independently in our own studios, which is a bit different to how groups usually write, but we have found it to be a great method of collaboration between us all.

What inspired you to start singing?

- Michael Jackson!

Were there any hard challenges you had to face in the industry?

- Yes of course, but so does everyone who tries to get things off the ground. We are not special in that regard. It’s very important to stay focused on what you believe in and while taking on advice and criticism is healthy, if you are sure of what you are doing it’s a powerful way of overcoming obstacles that would stop other people. And you find that people criticize you less…

What ways have you found was the best way to promote yourself?

- We’ve had a lot of good support come from blogs and online. I guess that’s the most exciting thing for us right now. Supporting the blogs that support us has been the best approach.

What would be your most memorable moment while singing?

- We played a show in London with The Sound of Arrows and Fear of Tigers all on stage together, which was pretty crazy. Aside from that, we’ve not played too many shows. Something that will change once we get the album out there.

Are there any goals that you would like to achieve?

- Yes, we have big ambitions. We want to play our music in front of very large audiences.

What can we expect from you in the future?

- Big things – in the music we write, the remixes we do and the shows we play. Our album after this EP, which will be a huge milestone for us.

Are there any upcoming albums you are releasing?

- Yes, we will be releasing our first album soon. It’s been a couple of years in the making, so we are really excited to show people and we hope it was worth the wait for people.

What do you think of FKN Famous?

- Hottie of the Week? We love it obviously

Any last shout outs?

- We’d like to thank you for the interview and your support, and also thanks to those who have waited patiently for us to put out this EP & album. Thanks!!
