Folktronic band to rock Cats Den
October 12, 2010
A band with a name as unique as its genre is coming to entertain UK.
Folktronic indie band The Seedy Seeds will perform at the Student Center Cats Den today at 8 p.m.
The Seedy Seeds are a three-member indie band from Cincinnati that got its start by wanting to learn how to play the instruments they already owned.
Using a banjo, accordion, keyboard and drums, the trio produces a sound that is a combination of indie and electronica with a heavy influence of folk with an upbeat tempo.
“They are pretty big in this region,” Cats Den concert coordinator Trey Harris said. “They played South By South West. They’re huge in this part of the U.S.”
The band has just released its sophomore album, Count The Days, and is scheduled to perform at the CMJ Music Marathon & Film Festival in New York City from Oct. 19-23.
“I’m really excited to see a band who exerts so much fun and has a really unique sound play at UK,” accounting and finance junior Leslie Steinmetz said.
“I’ve never been to a Cats Den show before,” art studio junior Andy Heath said, “But it should be pretty cool. I’m into folk and electronica so it should be interesting to see.”
The show will open with a local Lexington band, Tense Kids.
“We expect a huge turnout for this show,” Harris said.
The concert is free and will last about three hours.
