We spent a rainy afternoon with Twin Atlantic frontman, Sam Mctrusty for an exclusive Wonderland shoot in collaboration with the band’s signature practical, colourful outwear brand, RAINS.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n How did the collaboration with RAINS first begin?<\/b><\/p>\n It’s been a fairly natural relationship to be honest. I developed this idea of starting shows wearing long jackets with the hood up, boxer mode, fight ready! When I started buying a jacket or two I found Rains and they became my choice of jacket for on stage. Since then they’ve been really positive about it all and thrown a few ideas and jackets our way.<\/p>\n Do you have any key \/ staples pieces from the brand that you favour?<\/b><\/p>\n It depends on the occasion. I can be a bit of a showoff at times so the bolder the better. I wore the long white rains onstage for our last UK tour. Day to day though it makes sense for me to wear a darker jacket. Living in Glasgow it’s a blessing to have a waterproof jacket that actually carries style and fits with the rest of my wardrobe.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Do you wear a different colour RAINS jacket, depending on your mood \/ City you\u2019re playing in?<\/b><\/p>\n Usually I’ll pick one for a full tour. I like things to be steady and constant at my end and allow the audience to dictate the mood of a show. That’s what keeps it fresh. Festivals tend to bring out a more colourful side.<\/p>\n What are your wardrobe essentials? Any key items that you couldn\u2019t live without?<\/b><\/p>\n Life on the road dictates some fashion restrictions but my Dr. Martens have been an everyday choice for the last couple of years. Also, black Levis are a main staple too. To live up to the cliche of rock and roll music and sunglasses I’d add my Ray Bans or Tens to this too.<\/p>\n
