Artist description Country themes with some funk to help you shake it. There's lots of sounds, some melodic and some ethereal. We keep it fun. People dance. Sometimes we get excited and fall down. We also feature a revolving cast of characters on stage singing, chanting, dancing, and tooting on things.

Press Reviews Jeff Burke - Boston.com Staff "...If you're the sort that loves music and wants something a little different once in a while to break the guitar-bass-drums 4/4-time tedium, then the Dormouse Choir is for you. The interesting instrumentation and countrified lyrics all mix with a smart sense of song--and to top it all off it's not something you'll find at Tower Records."
