Los Angeles, California. August 2009.

Yon Garfias returns to music with his new colaboration with,Kaci Brown and Natalia Lafourcade, a proposal that was born of the exhaust system give the bassplayer to find that inspiration that led to the creation of the material.
In an interview by telephone with mtvradio, the bassplayer reveals that his colaboration are very satisfying to him because he has the artistic presence of Kaci Brown and Natalia Lafourcade. Also talks about his latest relationship.

After Kaci, who else would you like to work on a musical project?

- I want to do something with The Veronicas actually. We are good friends but we have not had the time nor the opportunity to do something. Also with Gabriella Cilmi, I'm checking if in the future I'm gonna work with her, an aussie girl that is proving very successful in Australia ha ha and another aussie band called Theart or with singer Wesley Carr.  

Why wait so long to get new work colaboration?

- It was a thing as the destination and time passed quickly. I wanted saved the former, who was with Silverchair for the 6th album, and it took me almost a half-year to do it and save it. After many months between mixes, fixes and art to achieve Hu hu hu with Natalia.

Do you consider yourself a better bassist or songwriter best?

- I do not know, just know that I do what I need and I do in playing and composition. Do not consider myself a super bassplayer, I only think that playing is my way of expressing myself. 

You think you're at all in the public fame?

- I still have to work harder. Fortunately, in my earlier work, people have felt identified and liked them. In my new album colaboration I chance to try new ways and structured ways of composing songs and I hope that people will continue enjoying it.

You still have a relationship with that girl named Zuri?

-No anymore, we broke up like 2 weeks ago. But was a great relationship with her, I really enjoyed it too much.

"Hello everybody, this is a first for me, but I couldn't wait any longer. I have a new band called "English Garden" and it is amazing music I have ever made by a long shot. You all must know, I didn't want Overflow to go on hiatus, but it had to....you all will learn why...soon, but I promise you, I am two songs from finishing the album. In the next couple of weeks, you will all hear about the new band. But no matter what is said, or talked about, no matter what rumors are started....prepare."
That what Yon Garfias said by phone 2/27/09 when i asked him about what is going on with the Overflow members....he told me "Lisa is on tour with the Veronicas and her brother Julian too. David wants to take a sabbathic year. Ben Folds is on tour. And Atom wants to make a new side-proyect with Doug Robb from Hoobastank and they need a member so they called me if I want to be part of it and I accept. "
I know Yon is recording the new album for Silverchair everybody on Overflow Crowds is busy except Atom and David but this second wants a sabbathic year.
Now Yon, Atom and Doug have a new band called English Garden rock alternative and this is what Atom said: "I love the band fans, and I promise I will not let you down, the music that we all grew to charish that was made, not only will continue, but it will be much, much better..."

From Overflow-Crowds Band and Aussie band Silverchair, Yon Garfias now after a half year after his broke up with Lisa Origliasso now he is dating with Malese Jow from the Bratz Movie.
They now in the last tour from his band Overflow Crowds Band, Malese invited him to a party and they crush.
Jow now 18 and Garfias 18 to 19 are a new couple for this 2009.

We were backstage during their concert Rock Band special at Guatemala, crammed into a tiny room at the Auditorio Juan Gutierrez with Overflow-Crowds, Sebastian Bach and Flyleaf. (Poor us, right?) The tight quarters gave us a chance to get up close and personal with OCB’s Yon Garfias. Here’s what we found out about his band’s new album, his addiction to pain killers and what the deal is between him and his former Silverchair bandmates.

Buzzworthy: Tell us about your documentary, Paper World.

Yon: The documentary is being finished right now, and it was submitted to Sundance. It’s an odyssey, and we’ve been working on it for two years. It started out as a making of the record and then the story got pretty insane. I broke my knee years ago and got spun out on all these narcotics, so when we were making the first Silverchair record all that stuff kind of exploded and I went out into the press with all these crazy things and all this controversy erupted.

Buzzworthy: Because of something you said?

Tom: Yeah, ’cause I went out and said [the band] was the second coming of Christ. But that’s what’s funny in the documentary; I was like, “If God came down I really, truly believe it would be bigger than this record.” [Laughs.]

Buzzworthy: Is all that behind you now?

Tom: Yeah, it’s all behind me. But the documentary will shed a lot of light onto the meaning of this band and what we’re trying to accomplish and how it all stemmed from the breakup of Silverchair.

Buzzworthy: Speaking of Silver, have you talked to your former bandmates since the breakup?

Tom: No, I haven’t talked to them. Isn’t that weird? It’s one of those things. You have to give it time. We had 10 years under our belt.

Buzzworthy: That was really the first time you sang sober?

Tom: Yeah, in four or five years or something. That’s what’s cool about it. The song is about God finding you. Growing up, I came from a religious background, and there’s an old psalm about footprints in the sand. So it’s about God walking next to you and saying I’ll take you for a ride; here’s a lifeline. It’s pretty rad.

Buzzworthy: What else makes this album special?

Tom: If people are gonna give this record a chance, I ask that they find a hill that’s nearby, park their car, open the car doors, lay on the hood, blast the music at night and pretend that the city below is theirs.

Buzzworthy: Have you done that?

Tom: I did. Every day while making it; pretty much in my head.

Yon Garfias:"What you need from us?"
Laura Baker:"I wanna hear about the new album...this is kind of bizarre question actually i have the all information abaout the all bands Silverchair, Rocket from the Crypt, The Offspring, Box Car Racer, The Veronicas ...all those are all the bands that you have been?"
YG:"Even more"
Atom Willard:"Yeah Hazen Street..."
YG:"Special Goodness..."
AW:"Yeah...Alcaline Trio many few"
LB:''What happened is like dating or what after the break up that you found the right?"
YG:"Well the main one is for us For "Rocket...","Silverchair" and "The Veronicas" is very much where you spend so much part of your life well this is a store band if you need a bassplayer or a drummer or whatever you have to ptretty much contact with the guy of the street that place that the instrument that hoook the guy works out and if it does and sign records...is not like a long process but we want the same things, we wanna make the same kind of music can we really be a partner together a bussines..."
AW:"Like a disable car"
YG:"Yeah..Do the guys goes on the own PA you know"
AW:"Those are the important thing"
YG:"So it happened you found yourself as you get older and you know really God, you know what you want in your life and your dially person is different...so but this point with Overflow i mean its like a perfect thing the only better band that i trully know was like that was the Angels and Airwaves where Atom and David played too, with Tom DeLonge was able to get a group of guys together feeding that band shoot where all want make all the same music same kind of thing actually be with friends this is actually where we are with wifes, girlfriends...i guess just girlfriends hahahahaha you know because you (Atom) are the only married"
AW:"But this is check what it hit about married to missing things that you really like...you know is not the thing where you force to go practice like 'Oh we can´t go together' and can´t wait to the end of the prectice to hang on with my girlfriend is really hang each other...it´s weird because from another situation always is not like that any of us is really that confortable time"
LB:"So thank you very much for coming"
YG:''Thank you and tell to all your fans that Im so handsome?hahahahaha"
AW:"Me too hahahaha"
LB:"Fine I tell them"

"There was a man that knew too much...His golden touch to ignore the will of time..."
"I'ts too much of not enough..."

YG:''I think i when we started as a band you know, i started when i was 14 now im 18 years old people just grow up but then when you found yourself and totally different i think that one part of the reason i think the 3 members in the band were looking for different goals and different ways to rock in their life and business life and what a band has to do, and i respect that honour that it´s cool so i have to be with my family and controle my life''
LB:''So how was the moment that you kind of 'ok i want to change things' did you know the right way? or ok i need to remove myself of the band and just teake a look around me then you found Oveflow-Crowds...and Macbeth''

Coming soon part 2

''I think one of the question that they have more often is anything about the last band they said any wants to know, you know , well my relatoinship with Daniel,Ben and Chris well i think that the fans of Silverchair they all have the idea that we are so close. And i guess its a tragedy that its so bad you know i remember this guy who was in the band and broke up and ask ''Hey are you gonna back together with Silverchair?''and i said well when i stared the band i was on junior high school and now they are 30 years old and i im 18 years old si is hard to left the band because is for another people with different needs and prioreties and im not sure if i back with them''
