Biography:
Frog Eyes is an indie rock band from Victoria (British Columbia, Canada), The quartet is led by singer/guitarist Carey Mercer and is known for their highly idiosyncratic songs, which pit Mercer's unhinged, melodic vocals against a swirling mass of guitar, keyboards, and drums. Drummer Melanie Campbell (also Mercer's wife) notably uses a 'found object' as part of her drums set, the so-called "dinger." This object was only used on their first three albums and has since been disposed of in favour of a normal ride cymbal.

F C G Em
And even when you run to the South of the city: there is danger!
F C G Em
For the North of the city shall enlarge and renew its CLAIM onto you
F C G
And the blonde lionesses with their leather-pleated dresses
Em
Are in a state of shock and wonder,
F C G
For the messianic complex has settled on your forehead
Em
As the lion does leap up the dew.

Preacher's at a cold wedding,

PREACHER'S AT A STREET WEDDING,
