Are LED light-up pants the future of Eurovision? Join us as we chat with Alex Canion, the powerhouse bass guitarist from the Australian band Voyager, who gives us a peek behind the curtain into their Eurovision 2023 journey. He pulls back the veil on the extraordinary costs associated with creating a killer performance for this global stage. He candidly discusses the band's electrifying impact on Semi-Final 2, saving it from becoming a borefest, and even playfully contemplates the idea of light-up pants for future performances. If you're a Voyager or Eurovision enthusiast, this chat will be music to your ears!
Venturing into the second part of our discussion, we dig into Voyager's recent European tour and how it's influenced their fanbase. Alex shares his thoughts on national pride, voyages of musical exploration, and how Eurovision has sculpted their unique approach to music. Take a sonic journey as we explore the band's experiences playing in a plethora of different countries, the creative process behind their new album, and Alex's favorite song from it. If you've ever pondered the intricacies of a triumphant Eurovision performance or what it's like touring with an Australian Prog Rock band, this conversation will hit all the right notes!
