It’s like desperate professionalism.” Huk is somewhat of a photography junkie. “My spare time is spent browsing online photo albums and portfolios. Some time is spent actually taking the photographs,” she says. “Musically; sixties bands outweigh any others. I sing the harmonies while driving - alone! Specifically the Zombies, the Hollies… Ultimately [I’m influenced by] self-sufficient individuals - famous and not.” In addition to The Diableros, Carmichael and Asher are in two other bands, Another Blue Door and The Airfields, respectively.
