Filthy Bonnet

Oh, how I loves me some Rasputina!

As they do with almost annual precision, their tour caravan will be treking and traversing the great 48 for a series of summer recitals.

I stumbled upon this trio of cello playing ladies many years ago and was very impressed with their unique sound which "chamber-rock". In the eleven years since, they have had many different second and third chair celloists as they added and lost members, expanded to include a drummer, experimented with electronic sounds, and adapted many a popular song to their style, but all the while kept their Victorian-era charm.

As your protector and champion, it is my duty to make you aware of all that is evil, stupid, and just flat out wrong with this world. But it is also my sworn obligation to inject your lives with vibrancy and excitement. Really, check the contract. I put Rasputina up there with Morphine and Polar Bear in the sure-fire category, and have yet to meet a person who didn't appreciate being exposed to them.
