Shellshag
There's only two people in Shellshag, Shell and Shag. Shell plays guitar and sings while Shag plays drums standing up and also sings. She has bells sewn on her belt and ankles, so there's lots of frantic wiggling to coax the noise out of them. They both sing into a mic stand they built themselves that's shaped like a Y, so they face each other while they play. They're known for putting on shows that bring the house down, sometimes literally. You can always expect some crowd surfing, things being thrown across the room, and the singing along that sometimes threatens to drown them out. The end of their show usually results in the two of them either building a sculpture out of their instruments, amps, and themselves, or completely smashing Shag's drums. Shellshag's approach to art and music far exceeds the edge of the stage and the walls of the club, and as a very active entity within the American music scene, Shellshag on stage and Shellshag off stage are one in the same. Shellshag's intentions are not to sell an illusion, but rather to interact directly with the world of music while remaining true to themselves and the creative lifestyle they have built over 15 years of D.I.Y. recording and performing.
