Musician/Singer Cody Simpson is changing up his sound after winning over fans as a pop star. Leaving his solo career behind, he teamed up with a new band, The Tide, to release a new EP. Simpson and bandmates Adrian Cota and Shareef "Reef" Addo, joined Cheddar to talk about music and life on the road. Simpson says he's inspired by surf rock and the psychedelic sounds of the Sixties. He also tells us what it was like to get behind the boards and produce. Simpson reveals the transformation has been "a long time coming." The Tide members also gave their take on which social media platforms and streaming services they rely on most. As the interview neared its end, we challenged the band to a game of "Which Simpson Said It?" Spoiler, the band got a perfect score!
