CORE: What sets Xtreme apart from the rest bands?
Dirky: Our music is so different from most of the other bands around who sound so much alike.
We put that love and genuine interest in the art form; it’s all about making quality music.
CORE: Your performances are fascinating. What’s your secret?
Harella: When I perform any one of my songs I try to put everything I have in them.
CORE: You all seem to have fun on stage. What’s it like to perform for such a large audience?
JJ: It’s a great feeling to be on stage. Its life for the two hours you’re on stage, nothing matters more than that moment.
CORE: How would you like to see the Xtreme impact the local calypso scene?
Zo: I hope our example encourages more musicians, more kids willing to pick up guitars and drum sets eager to play and compose good music.
CORE: Why should people by Xtreme’s albums?
Chickdaddy: I think people should buy the music because it is real VI music and it encourages us as young adults to do positive things and spread the VI love.
