Biography:

Steam Powered Giraffe (SPG) is an American steampunk musical comedy project formed in San Diego in 2008, self-described as "a musical act that combines robot pantomime, puppetry, ballet, comedy, projections, and music". Created and led by identical twins David Michael Bennett and Isabella "Bunny" Bennett, the act combines music and improvisational comedy on-stage, although their studio works focus almost solely on music.

Steam Powered Giraffe has its own fictional mythology

Electrical sounds

Steam from their exhausts
C Am F G
Gears and coils all criss-crossed Ah ah ah ha ha Eay

Everybody's going to the clockwork vaudeville

People crowd the door and scream and shout for more
C Am F G
While music and song fill the air

There were four metal people dressed oh so sharply
