Chris Wolstenholme of Muse Dishes on How Twilight Has Helped Their Fanbase Grow

The Sacaramento Bee had the oportunity to interview Muse’s Bass player,Chris Wolstenholme, via telephone last week. He talked about the huge popularity Muse has finally acheived here in the states after their European beginings back in 1994. He comments on the effect the Twilight franchise has had on their musical popularity.

How much did appearing on the “Twilight” soundtracks help your popularity in the States?

It really helped. I think in this day and age when people don’t go out and buy as many records, you use things like that to expose yourself to people who don’t know the band. It caused more of a buzz, and more people came out to see us live, and now it is sort of catching up. We are playing in arenas over here, and we are really enjoying it. I think that is what we always wanted but we thought we could never have.
