Sweet Tooth is a San Diego-bred high energy three-piece pop-rock soon-to-be disco-punk experience. An equal threeway collaboration between Jacob Schrimpf, Kevin Bingham and Trevor Barber, where the music and the show come first.

Here is an interview with the band, about their work and their new single Wind Me Up. 

Who are the band members and what do they play? 
Jacob plays the cheetar, Trevor plays the base, Kevin bangs on pigskins 

How and where did you get together? 
High school detention enemies 

What are the band's main influences?
Filling empty spaces in our souls, learning, creating future classic, 1960s vintage cars and lingerie, steamy cocoa

Have you played any notable gigs, festivals or other events? Likewise radio or TV appearances? 
Kaaboo Del Mar, NBC/Universal SoundDiego TV Segement, Radio: 91x, ALT949, ROCK1053 iHeartRadio interviews and plays. 

Are there any other interesting or amusing happenings – no matter how small – that the band have been involved withthat would be of interest to those who like your music? 
Well there's this one local bagel shop in our hometown, and the owner is really funny. He calls his shop a dictatorship and you have to follow the rules. Once we saw him kick people out because they were taking too long to order and he was busy (2 minutes). He doesn't do anything for anyone (other than provide amazing high quality bagels). But he's an OG. Well... one time he let us hang a poster in his window. That's love. 

Do you have any favourable quotes from previous reviews of the band that you'd be happy to share?
They said Kevin sounds like John Bonham, which we don't bring up cause Kev definitely loved that. Also, they said Jacob sounds like "smooth transcedence." Oh, actually, one place called us derivative. Most people wouldn't find that favourable, but I like the word. Also, our biggest following outside CA is in the UK: Birmingham, Gloucester, Essex, Manchester, Sheffield. At least that's what Spotify and Apple Music say... and out instaGROM following too.

Where was the single recorded and who was involved in its production?
Recorded in an underground studio called Ronin Studios by Sonic. You won't find it online because it's illegal. They dug and built itin an area they didn't own and have to walk through a tunnel to get into it. Can't tell you his name either or you might reveal critical details to sources that don't care about his existence. Also, our friend Gabe did some vocals and guitar on this record. Gabe's in a band called Digital Lizards of Doom. He's got a sweet afro.

Is there a particular ethos behind the single or any particular music styles or events that inspired it?
Prying pirates, liquid gold.

Can you briefly describe what the song is about?
It's about a girl, lads, c'mon.

Were there any notable or amusing happenings surrounding the recording/production of the single? As above, list whatever might be of relevance.
Erm, hmm. We met a lot of girls and boys because of it. People are sweet to meet.

Please provide a one or two-line personal quote that can be attributed to a band member, about either the band themselves or the release.
Obviously the more eye-catching this is the better.Jacob likes to say I'm as soft as a square of downy supreme.

Sweet Tooth is just a band that wantsto get on stage and rock it.
