As a band or artist, what has been you biggest challenge so far?
Finding the time to practice. We always do, it's just that we're all insanely busy, making it quite difficult.
What is the first song you learnt to play?
Alternative, Baby. The Reel Big Fish classic that seems to never leave our setlists.
How many shows you have played?
a handful over the last year. we all have lives and other projects to work on, so we play with the Bosswich when we can find time.
Who are your influences?
Lots of Third Wave ska, and a touch of second wave. Some reggae here and there and a surprising amount of jazz.

THEBOSSWICH'S BIOGRAPHY
In the Spring of 2007, Nathan Leung and Fletcher Planert were asked to put together a band that could perform danceable music for their high school’s spring dance. Nathan thought that playing Ska would be the most pleasing for the crowd, so they recruited trombone players Adam Schedler and J.D. Vandonk, plus Trumpet player Nathan Shinkar to provide the horns.
The dance fell through but the band kept rehearsing. They recruited drummer Simon Dennis and bassist Aiden Stevenson to be the rhythm section and finally played their first gig at Bluevale Collegiate’s 2007 Relay for Life event.
After the summer, both Simon and Aiden had to head off to University so they were soon replaced by Julian Divito and Donovan Mckinley respectively.
Over the last year, the Bosswich has caused audiences to dance away their inhibitions with their infectious, high energy tunes.
See you soon!
