publicity lounge : revive Open ended interview: Intro Revive is an amazing Sydney band that has had an incredible summer.  Earlier this year, the song Carefree blasted from radios all around the country becoming that summer song you just couldn’t get out of your head.  Joining us are the guys from Revive - Dave, Ty, Mike and Rich. How ya going? Response 1 [Great...well] 0:01 Guys, you've had an amazing few months. You've played at two of the country's major Christian music festivals, Blackstump and Sonfest, and you're getting a great reputation for putting on some great shows. People are talking a lot about you, but we know very little about you.  So tell us about Revive. Response 2 [Well Revive's... walk as Christians.]  1:00 That's interesting. So do you see yourselves as a Christian band, or a mainstream band that are Christians? Response 3 [I guess some people... bridge many gaps.] 0:28 What you're saying then is it's more important to be seeking quality and excellence than trying to define yourselves as a Christian band, or a band of Christians. Response 4 [Writing good music... so that (laughs)] 0:20 So what is 'success' to you guys.  Is it writing great music, scoring Dove Awards, getting to the top of the charts, playing great gigs... what is it? Response 5  [ Success... successful in that, already.] 0:56 Back to Revive
