Caulfield Breaks Out for Final 2011 Tour

Caulfield are taking time out from recording their debut album to enjoy one more 2011 tour.

The hard-rocking Sydney four-piece have been holed up in a studio working on the follow-up to their big EP Clarity in a Sea of Confusion, so no doubt they’re ready to get back in front of audiences.

This is a band that’s always done their best work on the stage, and I imagine these shows will be no exception. It all kicks off this Saturday on the Gold Coast before travelling down the East Coast and on to Adelaide for the final night.

Make sure you turn up early to catch Awaken I Am in the supporting slot at the following gigs.

5 November 2011 – Fever Nightclub, Gold Coast (18+)
6 November 2011 – Jubilee Hotel, Brisbane (18+)
11 November 2011 – Noise Bar, Melbourne (18+)
12 November 2011 – Footscray Youth Centre, Melbourne (All Ages)
17 November 2011 – Hot Damn, Sydney (18+)
19 November 2011 – Lucky Australia Tavern, Sydney (All Ages)
26 November 2011 – Black Market, Adelaide (18+)

Q & A with Caulfield’s Ned Jankovic

Sydney’s Caulfield are in the thick of a cross-country tour to promote their debut album Clarity In A Sea Of Confusion. Somewhere along the way the band’s guitarist Ned Jankovic found time to chat to me about life on the road, the album, and the band’s exciting live act.

I’ve heard your music described as punk, hardcore, and alternative whatever that term means these days. For the uninitiated, how would you describe your sound?
Heavy breakdowns, huge melodies, delays that can make the Edge from U2 cry … ha. It’s mainly a mix of different styles but if I had to “categorise” it, it’s post-hardcore which is a style that mixes hardcore but with a more melodic element to it.

You guys have all been in other relatively successful bands before. What does that experience bring to this new outfit?
It brings a lot of things, better ways to tour, other, newer methods of promoting the band to the songwriting itself. Having all that experience helps the band progress in the right direction

How did you all come together?
Myself, Mahan and Andrew had a band around five years ago. Sadly the band disbanded but about a year and a bit ago we just started to jam again and here we are! We found Brad and Colin from ads on the net, but funnily enough we all knew each other from the scene.

You’ve just released your debut album Clarity in a Sea of Confusion. What can you tell me about it?
This is a record we are all very proud of. So far we have had an amazing reaction, and this CD translates well to our live show, which is what we want. This CD represents us to a tee. The title itself means a lot to us. We were searching for so long and this band is our Clarity. It’s brought us together to write some kick ass music.

Caulfield Tours Debut Album

Sydney alternative punksters Caulfield are taking their debut album Clarity In A Sea Of Confusion on the road with a tour taking in Australia’s east and west. Guitarist Ned Jankovic describes the disc as the “perfect introduction” to this exciting new band.

“It’s about being lost emotionally and mentally and finding ways to get back to where you want to be and mixes all the elements we love,” he explained.

The album features the new single “Bring Sunday,” a moving track about learning to let go of the past and move on from mistakes made.

“It relates to how sometimes you can feel like a stranger even around the people you know best and overcoming this so you can move on with life,” added Jankovic.

Look out for Caulfield when they bring their show to your town!
