Music News - Sea Mouse releases title track from their upcoming EP 'Evil Heart' with fiery live video
04 May 2022 - 0 Comments
Sea Mouse has just dropped Evil Heart, the fuzzed out first single and video from their upcoming EP of the same name, releasing mid-2022.
The Wellington-based blues-rock trio have been cultivating their reputation as electrifying songwriters and one of the city's most polished live acts since formation in 2017. Comprised of Seamus Johnson (vocals, guitar) with Scott Maynard (bass), and Thomas Friggens (drums), Sea Mouse are known for explosive garage rock infused with delta blues grooves that have drawn comparisons with the genre's greats.
No strangers to the spotlights, Sea Mouse's play some of the most iconic venues in the country such as Whammy Bar, Meow, San Fran, and the Cook, as well as become audience favourites at a number of festivals, but Evil Heart showcases how seamlessly the band's live act translates to a record. Inspiration for the idea of a homage came from the band spending time learning and playing blues covers around Wellington under a pseudonym title. Joining the band for these gigs, and for the recording of this EP, is local keyboard maestro, Dayle Jellyman (Miles Calder, Three Rays).
With a fuzzed out groovy shuffle, which takes its inspiration from the blues legend R.L Burnside, Evil Heart is a song about “having negative attitudes projected onto you, and responding to them with sarcasm”. The track is the first single, and the title track from their forthcoming eponymous EP. The 5 track EP was recorded in Newtown, Wellington with Warwick Donald as homage to the band's blues heroes and influences.
