Improvisations and expansive melodies take the listener on a trip through their cosmos. The sextet has toured the UK several times.

SEAS OF MIRTH

Seas of Mirth have been stamping their own mark on modern music for the last decade, mixing up styles and genres while also being known for their aquatic twist. Their sonic span comprises areas of psyche, dark funk, jazz, disco, latin and chime pop while comparisons have been made to the likes of Cardiacs, Stereolab, Talking Heads, Parliament, Animal Collective and Frank Zappa.
