[MUSIC: Interview] The Laurels
It’s all too easy to assume that a musician dude in his early 20s will be monosyllabic and unexpressive, grunting his way through life. Doubly so for a musician dude in his early 20s who’s in a shoegaze band. But The Laurels’ co-frontman, Piers Cornelius, is one of the most thoughtful, eloquent musicians I have ever interviewed. Maybe it’s just that he’s more willing to actually talk about his band’s creative process than other, older, more guarded artists – but whatever the reason, out of our conversation emerges an image of a Sydney band determined to be around for a long time, not just a good time.
