Artist description
The band likes to call it "Rural Music". This however, can be a little misleading because the sound is pretty diverse. Sometimes it's a little more pop...other times it's a little more rock...or country...or experimental...or some combination of all of these. Though decidedly unfocused, the Siamese Left sound is not without some strands of continuity, namely Cliff Lee's guitar and Bate's and Smith's vocal harmonies. |

Music Style
anglo-americana pop rock with some country leanings |
 |
Musical Influences
Too many to list...everything we've ever heard...I guess? |

Similar Artists
Kinda like a more straight-forward, rural, REM with strong Beatle, Bob Dylan and Niel Young influence. Plus, a pinch of Belew-era King Crimson....and a small trace of country twang |
