SKY CREATURE PERFORMANCE ADVANCE
Sky Creature is singer Majel Connery and baritone guitarist Matt Walsh. Occupying a space between art music and punk rock, the band's sound elicits comparisons with artists from Kate Bush to Suicide. Walsh toured for over a decade as one half of post-punk duo The Forms, sharing the stage with artists ranging from The National to St. Vincent to Hum. Connery’s solo music has been featured on Radiolab, New Sounds radio, and Live from the Kennedy Center. Sky Creature released their double EP Bear Mountain/Childworld in 2022 and toured nationally in the summer of 2022 and spring of 2023. They are currently finishing their first LP with Steve Albini.
