What:This Spring Sea Mouse are taking their electrifying show around New Zealand on a 8 date nationwide tour following the release of their latest EP, ‘Evil Heart’.
Known for a hard-hitting sound drenched in rock and blues, Sea Mouse will be featuring the music from their recent release ‘Evil Heart’. This new collection of music favors a grittier approach that combines classic blues stylings and modern garage fuzz tones.
With an original take on rock ‘n’ roll, Sea Mouse formed in 2017. Creating a unique blend of sounds from the Delta blues of the 1930s, to mammoth guitar-driven garage rock tunes, with hooks big enough to snag a whale. Sea Mouse are all about hard-hitting, well-hewn, rock anthems.
