[on his musical upbringing before 'Poor Young Things'] My parents actually had really poor taste. My mom is into polka records. There was this band she would listen to called 'The Moms and Dads' and I always thought she meant 'The Mamas and the Papas'. I was personally huge into the Halifax scene when they were calling Halifax the 'Seattle of Canada'. I was really into "The Inbreds', 'Local Rabbits', 'Thrush Hermit' Joel Plaskett, all that stuff.
