LittleBook: Why did you start a band??
Tinkture: Tinkture was what we called our combined musical endeavor, which was never premeditated or discussed. It just snowballed.
LB: How did you find each other??
T: We were all friends first, we paired up with instruments pretty much arbitrarily.
LB: What's your most memorable moment as a band??
T: Probably something embarrassing. When we were 16 The Eagle almost didn't let us play because we were underaged, but then a bunch of people showed up and they didn't want to refund anyone's money. It ended up being really fun, and in the end they were really nice about it.
LB: Favorite pre / post show; food, indulgence or ritual??
T: Honestly: putting on makeup in the bathrooms.
LB: What do you drink at practice??
T: Tea
LB: What’s the hardest thing about being an all girl Band in the Bay Area??
T: Being asked about being an all girl band.
LB: What do you want people to know about your band, what are you doing next??
T: We are recording a Full Length Debut Album in January, it's being produced by Michael Belfer (Tuxedomoon, The Sleepers, Flipper, Indian Jewelry, Crystal Antlers)
LB: What's up with your CD where can I get it, where did you record it??
T: We're recording at Mama Jo's in Hollywood, at the moment we're available on iTunes, and all the iTunes-esque devices. Our Album will be available everywhere, though.
LB: Favorite San Francisco Band or a memorable show??
T: I think collectively our favorite SF band is the Abi Yoyo's.
LB: Favorite venue to Play??
T: Slims. Bottom of the Hill is a close second, and The Hotel Utah will always have a special place in our heart.
LB: Do any of the members ever take their shirts off at a show or at practice??
T: No, we have breasts, and that'd be distracting.
LB: Who's the smelliest member after a sweaty gig??
T: We always smell like roses and cookies and grapefruit... Respectively.
LB: Where do you think live music is heading??
T: I think live music is eternal, it's recorded music who's face is changing.
LB: How do you feel about people downloading your songs for free , do you offer free downloads??
T: We can't wait for people to start downloading and torrenting our songs. At the moment it can't be gotten on LimeWire. We checked
