Franz Lyons Talks Turnstile Grammy Win

Turnstile

Franz Lyons of Turnstile recently joined the Loudwire Nights show:

What was in his bag at the Grammy Awards: “At the end of the night, it was two Grammy replica trophies, so that’s all that matters. You don’t get your trophy until July. So, I have the bag, I’m like, ‘Yo, I got this sick ass bag…give me my own trophy today!’ So I set the Grammy in my bag and the whole backstage stopped. I was like, ‘Y’all let me win, I just want to put it in my bag. This looks cool.’ And the lady was like, ‘My god. My god.’ Where am I going to run to?!

Turnstile Talk With Rolling Stone About Grammy Noms

Turnstile talked with Rolling Stone about their historic Grammy nominations:

Genre definitely can be a good guide for finding sounds that you like in certain worlds. Hardcore is maybe more of a culture and a community. At a hardcore show, you can have bands that all sound very different, but there’s a shared essence.

We grew up going to punk and hardcore shows. And we grew up listening to rock. We grew up listening to metal, to alternative, to R&B, to rap, to electronic music. We listened to all kinds of things. We’ve never denied ourselves the musical influences that have been a part of our lives growing up, what our parents were playing when we were kids. Everyone is kind of just a sponge of what they are drawn to. I think it’s important to not put a box around what you naturally are drawn to.
