Cub Sport are an independent alternative group from the capital of Queensland - Brisbane. Comprised of Tim Nelson, Zoe Davis, Sam Netterfield and Dan Puusaari, the gang have three studio albums as well as three EPs under their belt. Their most recent creation, Cub Sport, is their third self-titled album, which they released in January this year.
Tim, lead singer and songwriter of the group, discussed the unique fact that he and fellow bandmate Sam are married. Though the couple are very happy together today, it was a long and confusing road for the pair who have been best friends since childhood. Always extremely close, they attribute their religious upbringings, as well as the fear of losing each other’s friendship, as the reason for not expressing their romantic feelings for each other sooner.
So what’s it like to work with someone you are married to?
“We really love it,” shared Tim. “We like spending as much time together as we possibly can. think in the music industry it can be hard if you’re not in the same band or on the same tour, you hardly get the chance to see each other. It works really well for us. write a lot about us. We’re also self managed and we’re our own record label, so it’s a very unique situation. We’re very fortunate to be enjoying all the things we get to do together.”
