WHERE'S JEROME ANNOUNCED AS BRAG'S WIN A SET AT PURPLE SNEAKERS NYE' WINNER

 

WHERE'S JEROME are the winners of our Brag 'Win A Set At Purple Sneakers NYE' competition. We thought we'd ask them a few questions to tell us all a little more about themselves....

1. Describe the sounds Jerome cooks up in his kitchen?
Occasionally soulful, sexy, cheesy fun, an aural snack or meal to enjoy when the food of the day has failed to provide anything nutritious that even touches the sides. Satisfying enough to fill you up but not too gluggy or preservative laden to ruin your next meal. Just perfect really!
2. What is Jerome cooking up for New Years Eve?
We we'll hopefully provide plenty of the above for the gathering throng plus more than a dash of rock, lashings of twangy strap, pummeling drums and tinklings of the non elephant or walrus ivories, finished off with a layer of sibling infused harmonies, a bit like a quiche but slightly more heterosexual, although no one is excluded from sitting at our table and breaking bread with us, everyone is welcome.
3.Tell us about your favourite past NYE experience?

Setting up camp at Balmain with a barby and acoustic guitar to watch the 2000 fireworks and party like it was 1999 because it was, and a trashy all nighter at Spectrum and Q Bar in 2005. I dare say this upcoming Purple Sneakers Bash will be up there as well.

Brag competition winners WHERE'S JEROME join DAPPLED CITIES, FAKER, SPARKADIA, CLOUD CONTROL rounding out the killer live line-up which already features YOUNG & RESTLESS, THE TONGUE, THE HOLIDAYS, WONS PHREELY and S.Y.L.K.

Meanwhile behind the turntables new additions KATO, VANS VS CONS, BEST FRIENDS, COCO & SHAMBLES and SPLITTER join PhDJ and the amazing PURPLE SNEAKERS DJs [VIVIENNE KINGSWOOD, DJ FLE, NICK FINDLAY and K-VON].
