Faithless 'still passionate about playing live'

Faithless have said they still feel passionately about performing live after 15 years together.

Speaking to Email, Sister Bliss said she could not still be in the band if she did not genuinely love it.

Indeed, she noted that being in a group requires a high level of commitment, as it involves lots of travelling and long hours.

"There's no way you could do this if it was just a job," Bliss commented.

"We all feel exactly the same way - we are as dedicated as ever."

Bliss added that Faithless set out to be different from their inception because dance music often involved a singer miming to a backing track.

She said they were keen to prove that it did not have to be like this and could work with genuinely live music.

Faithless, who are behind dance classics such as Insomnia and We Come 1, will play at the Coronet Elephant & Castle in London on October 1st 2010.
