“We’re Getting Away With This Somehow” Getdown Services on Influences & Identity

We managed to catch up with Getdown Services at the Trades Club in Hebden Bridge, where we talked touring, the UK Music Scene and their live gear setup. In this Getdown Services interview, Ben and Josh catch up with us before their Hebden Bridge show to chat sold-out UK dates, why playing smaller towns matters, and how the Music Scene thrives beyond the big cities. They dive into their songwriting process, from beat-first ideas to French electronic and garage rock influences, and explain why the live show feels bigger, louder and a bit more chaotic than their recordings. We also get into the gear, including Josh’s Roland JC-40, touring guitars, and Ben’s evolving synth setup. Plus, crisps rankings, Desert Island discs and essential music equipment.
