Об исполнителе:
Little Menace comprises Max Piris, Ben Mills and David Trotter. “We met over the garden fence when I was 7 and Ben was 3,” says David, Little Menace eldest member. “We thought we were Hans Solo and Luke Skywalker, obsessed with Star Wars and Jedi Knights, and falling out over who had the best toys. Not very rock and roll is it?” Looking for their very own sarf London Princess Leia to front the band, Ben's friend mentioned Max. The lads rang her up and got her over to sing in the front room. “I remember being so nervous,” recalls Max. “My mum sat outside in the car with the engine running waiting for me, there was no way she would've left me alone with these two nutters, as I was only 13!” She laughs, giving David a playful dig in the ribs. And what about the music then? The vibe works because of the different styles each of the Menacers brings to the melting pot. “Ben is all RNB and Hip Hop, Max is sultry credible Pop and I'm the Dance lover,” suggest David. “Something for everyone!” Ben adds: “We're a mix up of American influences like Timbaland and the Neptunes with British Electro-Pop-Rock elements. And the name Little Menace? “It's a p**s take to be honest!” smirks Max. “We're 3 white kids from Croydon doing UK Garage, Soul and RNB, so we thought we'd have a laugh with our name. It's just a take on all the people that take themselves too seriously.”
