From the dark depths of Vermont come The Devil Makes Three. Orphan siblings from Manitoba, Cooper, Lucia and Pete were taken in by a family of marmot farmers in Southern VT. Weary of the marmot farming life, the tight knit trio began singing songs of life in the old country, and eventually ran away to join a travelling medicine show. The group honed their technical skills for eight years, until in 2002 decided to quit the travelling show and strike out on their own. They rose to fame rapidly in Scandinavia where they were treated as gods, but their longing for chicken noodle soup and fine lederhosen soon brought them to California where they have lived in a cave for the past three years.
Play Bellingham Washington next March before or after Seattle? A few great venues here that would pack out if you came for sure! Big following up here. Look at the Nightlight Lounge or Wild Buffalo. It would be worth your while I assure you!
