Are you completly satisfied about your last work? 
Umm, Yeah I'm pretty satisfied with it, but like anyone else I always think "Well, I could have done this or that better..." I think thats just my nature though...I'm content with it until I get into the studio again...
Wich are the most important ispiration for doing this new album? 
I think my main inspiration is life, in general. My relationships, my sadness, whatever might spark me into writing usually does it... I love to perform more than anything else in the world, so it's inspiring to share the music with everyone. Even people all the way over in Italy!! :)
Is There some others artists that you think important to reccomend us? 
I think the Shins are amazing. I also love Wilco, Radiohead, Belle and Sebastian... The Wrens... Ummm... I've got about a hundred others, but those will do for now. There is a great American band called Romantica who I think will be famous any day now...
Are there some others projects for the your future? 
Yes, Summer Blanket will be recording a new record this year hopefully. The title for now is "the winter the robots fell in love" and I hope to have it out early 2005.
Is there something in your album that you don't like enough?
I don't think there are enough upbeat songs... the record sounds very depressing to me, and I'd like for the next one to not be so one-dimensional... more toe-tapping... :)
Thanks Franco!
Ciao,
Keith
