I found all three members of LA indie folk band Magic Giant behind Vancouver's Fox Theatre completing another interview while their crew skateboarded in the alley. Magic Giant make crowd clapping, toe-stomping, sing-along type music and spending some time with Austin, Zambricki and Zang was just as energetic and infectious as their live show. These three are non-stop charm, wit and laughter. It was a really fun interview.
What ritual does Magic Giant perform before every show? What was the last concert that got the members of Magic Giant to sing along to the set? Does the band's tour van have solar panels on the roof and why? What is the touching story behind the band's song "Jade"? How does the band write together? How does the band democracy get tested? What does the band look for in a potential producer? What was it like to soundtrack a yoga class? What are the pitfalls of recording songs outdoors? Which song was inspired by "Forever Young" by Bob Dylan? You'll have to listen to find out.
