Interview with The Motor Show

Beau Vine pulls the strings from the back seat in this latest offering from the talismanic ranchero. Having fallen into relative obscurity in the early ’90s after his second marriage ended expensively, legendary guitar-for-hire Beau Vine resurfaced nearly 3 decades later, plying his trade on a cattle farm in East Anglia. Not yet ready for the frills of fame, but eager to play music again, Vine put together a group of young locals to be his buffer. He branded them, The Motor Show.

What made you decide that music is the right path for you?

I was a child of MTV Cribs. Noticed early on the musicians had the most cars. If it wasn’t for Cribs there would be no Motor Show.

Who are your main musical influences and why?

Our one & only influence is the early works of our creator & talisman, Beauregard Vine.

If you could change about the music industry, what would it be?

Bring back cars in music videos. The Lamborghini Diablo product placement after the dance interlude in Usher’s U Remind Me remains undefeated 13 years later. Ford, call me x

If you could collaborate with anyone dead or alive, who would it be?

Would love to collaborate with a team of record label executives, preferably at Geffen Records HQ.

What’s the best advice you’d give to your younger self?

Not every band needs a gimmick. Just stay true to yourself & the rest will follow.
