Poli Correia ist Sänger von "Devil in me" und von "Sam Alone & the Gravediggers". Die neue D.I.M. Platte "Soul Rebel" ist ein Mega Knaller geworden und nachdem die letzte Scheibe von Sam Alone schon richtig gut war, bin ich schon sehr gespannt auf das neue Release "Tougher Than Leather"
Grund genug dem jungen Mann mal ein paar Fragen zu stellen. Ultra netter und unkomplizierter Typ!
Hello
Poli, how are you?
Sup man?
You
are very busy with your music right now. Your two Bands “Devil In
Me” and “Sam Alone” released new Albums this year. How does it
work?
All good,yeah its been kinda crazy,but zero problems so far!
The way it goes is like this,Pedro takes care of D.I.Ms
stuff and i take care of my "own",we're best friends for such a long
time,and band mates for the same amount,so we know whats up and how to
handle "work",at least,i like to think so.
I guess its all a matter of "will" and passion,and we come from a place were,that is the fundamental key to carro on!!

What
are you doing besides of the music?
I've been tattooing for 15 years,i run a shop in the south of Portugal
called Iron Skull,started when i was 17,i thank tattoos everyday,if it
wasnt for them i would never had money to record my songs,i guess thats
starting to pay off..ahah!
You
are a father. How do you balance your career with being a dad?
Well....it aint that hard,not easy though,Maria is 7 now and will turned
8 April 6,i will be on tour,i think i will be in Hamburg that day,and
thats the hard part,now and then we miss something important,gotta Learn
how to deal with and once you've back home,give all i've got!!My baby
Girl means the world to me,and she's always on my mind 24/7!!
How
did becoming a father change your life?
I will be honest with you,it only opened way more my perspectives and vision towards the world!!
I come to realized,that i finally got a chance to start changing the world,and by that i dont mean,that i will save it,but it all starts with education,raising a human being is a beautiful thing,it all starts when we are Kids, and it up to parents to teach and show them that..it start by racial issues and respect,by letting her know,thats she is just as special as the next(even knowing thats she is "my" special one)but hope that she will grow up with a positive mind,and not giving to fucks about Flags or any sort of tradicional closed and minded,so yeah,being a father did changed my life..in a real good and powerfull way!
