Lights, camera, bASS!
Rumor has it that Louis' bass is equipped with a secret disco ball that activates when he starts playing - that's the only way to explain why the crowd can't resist getting down!
Should probably be playing the guitar, but he's probably "fixing" the amp 🤷♂️
Breandan's guitar playing is so smooth, we're pretty sure it's the reason why the floor is so slippery on stage.
Often hidden at the back of photographs.
Jack's drumming is so powerful, we're pretty sure he could start a seismic event if he played hard enough.
If there's a microphone, he's probably behind it.
Tommy's singing is so good, it's like honey for your ears - except without the stickiness, unless you spill your drink, then all bets are off.
