Preshow Music for She Kills Monsters
Like absinthe in a baby bottle, the music of Meet The Seavers is unexpected.
They don’t fit in and they like it that way.
Often performing with just Upright Bass, Theremin and vocals, their music is a potent concoction of swing, odd time signatures and unusual chord changes wrapped around an ingenious lyric.
Performing in the pub before each show. Don't be late!
