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. The band’s sound has been taken to a new level on their fourth album Kriller – out now- a deep-ocean inspired ode to nightlife, community, creativity and the state of the marine environment.
With an extensive instrumental checklist intact, the sonic span widens into areas of psyche, dark funk, jazz, disco, latin and club beats. The prog-folk elements remain from their first three records, but this time around, comparisons have been made to the likes of Cardiacs, Stereolab, Talking Heads, Parliament/Funkadelic, Gong, Henge, Animal Collective, King Gizzard and Frank Zappa.
Live, there is a huge emphasis to bring the tunes to life in an enthralling sensory experience, made possible with big luminous sea creature props emerging through the course of the set, and various interactive opportunities for the crowd – this may even include a tug of war! Throughout the last couple of years, Seas of Mirth have played at festivals such as Glastonbury, Bearded Theory, Lindisfarne, Nozstock, Boomtown, Isle Of Wight, Solfest, Moovin and Equinox as well as a number of UK tours to much acclaim.
