Tame Impala - Why Kevin Parker Is Known As Tame Impala

[@coriderlukeyboy72]

the fact that he can explain for the 4000th time that tame impala is just one guy while not showing visible annoyance is amazing

[@NikkoNikko98]

I thought the same 😂

[@kittervision]

lol right? old news!

[@Brodzzzzz]

Literally...

[@xandergilbert3697]

You can tell he's starting to get annoyed lol. Or maybe I'm projecting

[@MrAdomus]

I think everyone does that when anyone asks, "Who's Tame Impala?"

[@snoopfrog6966]

bro the way kevin is showing his anxiety to being on tv is legitimately a carbon copy of how i act when im anxious, makes me love him even more 💀💀

[@grifosaurus9511]

I thought of that too xD

[@seanbrown6711]

to be fait the bs theyre asking him i would be cringing too. They could have asked more about his music and what his talents are being used for but whatever,..

Kev really looks like someone who's having the best time of his life. Touring the world and putting on some amazing shows with his friends, being a new dad, making some great music... So relaxed and chill.

As a fan you just gotta be happy for him, I wish him the best :,)

he deserves it!

[@eroyns2065]

[@1292liam]

always so chill, very inspirational. Australians are born with sunshine in their blood though (IMO IE the ones Ive met), so it helps things too.

[@cover-me]

Basically he may be chilled but look at the body language here in this studio. Classic anxiety.

I had the pleasure of being in the supporting act opening for Tame Impala in Switzerland. Backstage he was very quiet and chill, the other band members definitely seemed more gregarious. He seemed like a humble guy. Which considering he’s a genius…

[@Am3rIca16]

wow. how does one open for them? did you reach out to them?

[@wrd980]

I saw Tame Impala at Jakarta a few years ago and then I was lucky enough to meet Kevin in person at the Jakarta airport the following morning as we were both flying out. He came across as being very humble, cool and polite.

[@TisMePyper.S]

He’s an incredible guy. I met him at Gage Roads when he opened the venue as I was working there. Then I saw him Live in Perth at my first ever concert which was amazing! He’s a really nice guy, so down to earth.

[@dieselclockwork]

He’s literally the reason I started making music. I make hip-hop but I produce all my own beats and vocals and lyrics etc independently. Kevin is my greatest inspiration and I love how humble he’s always stayed :)

[@NMPIN]

Is that the Jebadiah Kev? With Vanessa on bass? Leaving home? From the 90s Jebadiah who used to tour the great Southern with Beaverloop, Flanders, Fuzztruncheon Ammonia and Humbug? Google won’t tell me

[@Daytona-Bleach]

and it probably feels like the whole world is watching kevin. I couldn’t imagine having an interview and these people already know everything about my personal life.

[@superultragiggachigga]

So true. It’s probably feel odd. I wonder if that’s how celebrities feel when they date? Like is it weird that most of the world already knows or can find out anything about your personal life.

[@pacshb]

"Musical Genius" I mean, they're not wrong

[@cathyr1560]

Always love to hear Kevin'a side about things such as "Tame Impala. " He explains it very well. Very simple.
