Surprise me
Crazed Russian fairytale meets punk rock! What happens when Ivan marries a frog? Big sounds. A wicked racket! Urban meets forest. Patriarchy meets feminism. Baba Yaga meets Koschey the Deathless! Pioneering storyteller Sally-Pomme Clayton and all-girl band The Swamp Girls create a hullabaloo of spoken word, distorted guitars, riotous songs, scorching drums, poetic riffs, set in a shifting collage of fragmented images and film.
The Frog Princess Punked combines the noise of punk with a surreal narrative about the dangers of annexing the wild and the wisdom of liberating the female.
"It's gonna be angry. It's gonna be loud! "Disgusting! Get out before the doors close!" The Guardian
The Swamp Girls are: Sally Pomme Clayton - story; Georgia Kalogeropoulou - composition, guitar, saxophone, voice; Dawn Rose - arrangement, drums; Nina Polutimou - bass guitar; Fotios Begklis - images, v-jaying
