INTERVIEW: Luke Monks – Gay Paris

Gay Paris

 

As the outlandish frontman of unique Aussie rockers Gay Paris, Luke has carved himself as a singer that simply puts it out there and whatever happens is up to the fans to decide. That mentality goes across with the band as well and their latest album “Ladies and Gentlemen: May We Present To You The Dark Arts” is a testament to what the band do best, and that is rock. We caught up with the frontman ahead of an upcoming national tour across Australia to speak about the new songs and what the tour may hold for the fans.
