Glam Chat: Interview with Ed Kowalczyk

  • Summary

  • This year, Live is celebrating 25 years since the release of their iconic Throwing Copper album.

    Lead singer and rhythm guitarist, Ed Kowalczyk, has recently come off Live’s Summer world tour, for which the band was joined by Bush and Our Lady Peace.

    In 2020, the renowned rock band will be travelling to Adelaide for Under the Southern Stars. The line-up is also set to feature Bush and Stone Temple Pilots, as well as Rose Tattoo and Electric Mary.

    “I think the festival atmosphere of this concert line-up is going to be really cool,” Kowalczyk says.

    Since reuniting in late 2016, Live has enjoyed a return to touring life, with the original lineup, along with two additional members.

    “It’s nice when you actually get to a city and have a day or two off,” Kowalczyk says.

    When asked about the reunion, and what it has meant for Live, Kowalczyk is reflective.

    “The demand for the band has been astronomical since the reunion in 2016,” he says.

    “I love it. I mean, it never gets old.”

    Since the reunion, Live has released a new EP, Local 717, and more new music is in the works.

    “Next year, we’re looking forward to, after our trip down under, being able to really move into the studio … we haven’t released a full length album for many years, so we’re excited to get to work on that,” Kowalczyk comments.

    During their career, Live has achieved seven Top 5 albums in Australia, three of which topped the charts at #1 for a total of ten weeks.

    “I get to do my hobby for a living,” says Kowalczyk.

    Under the Southern Stars will be in Adelaide in Bonython Park on April 13 2020 (Easter Monday).
