About Vermouth

Vermouth performs Retrofuture Pop Exotica filled with intricate vocal harmonies, atmospheric guitars, keyboards, trumpet, bass and drums. Quirky and catchy- with songs featuring sea anemones, go go dancers, iguanas and various tales of idiosyncratic friends- Vermouth condenses an eclectic assortment of influences into bite size chunks of pop music that are both melodic and offbeat.

Write me sometime...	Dec 7 2007 9:57 AM This is not the same Vermouth I saw in SC @ the Cable TV studio gig... back in '04 I reckon. You folks are evolving into something fierce! Collage has officially blown my head off and I am completely addicted. Rippin' polyrhythmic guitar, syncopated horns and sweet, swingin' sometimes bashy drums! I love this tune. Did I say that already??? Also diggin' the other two posts and my 4 1/2 yr old niece loves singin' along w/ Justine! Please send Matthew love from Robert G... Thanx and keep up the great writing and arrangements post more trax!!! Heart. RJG
amilia k spicer	Nov 28 2007 5:33 PM Vermouth is the new black!
Dawn	Nov 22 2007 10:12 AM I am thankful for Vermouth! Happy Thanksgiving.
DG Photography	Oct 28 2007 10:46 AM Bordello is just not the same without you...went there the other night for other music and thought of you. Hoping to see another show soon. :-)
Polly Moller & Co.	Sep 16 2007 2:04 PM Break a leg tonite! Wish I could be there to witness your triumph. :)
Liz Pappademas	Sep 14 2007 2:00 PM Hello.
Gologan	Sep 11 2007 3:33 AM ADVICE Someone dancing inside us has learned only a few steps: the “Do-Your-Work” in 4/4 time, and the ”What-Do-You-Expect” waltz. He hasn’t noticed yet the woman standing away from the lamp, the one with black eyes who knows the rumba and strange steps in jumpy rhythms from the mountains of Bulgaria. If they dance together, something unexpected will happen. If they don’t, the next world will be a lot like this one. Bill Holm
Erich Von Kneip	Aug 28 2007 6:28 PM It bears repeating. Vermouth is a great band. Last Thursday was no exception. Are those green shoes Justine?
amilia k spicer	Aug 26 2007 8:42 PM hi sorry i missed your bordello show. after being on the east coast for 6 weeks, i came back to miles o' piles. daggone it. but now i'm ready, so please redo. xxx ps. soon-food/beverages?
Mrs. Hobbs	Aug 24 2007 12:35 PM It was great to play again at Bordello last night. You guys were amazing, as usual. And it was fun to hang out too. See you soon, I hope.
Jessica Fichot	Aug 6 2007 10:30 AM Hi Vermouth! Thanks for getting my friend Pierre on the bill for August 23rd. I'll definitely be there to see both of your shows.
Andrew	Aug 2 2007 10:22 AM The RetroFuture is now!
Erich Von Kneip	Aug 1 2007 5:38 PM Don't believe the other reports. 31 July brought us an angry Vermouth. I now have a pending restraining order against them and their barrage of tumbleweed-flavored lizard spy rock.
Cat Hair Ensemble	Aug 1 2007 1:15 AM Another awesome show tonight. Thanks.
Polly Moller & Co.	Jul 31 2007 7:05 PM Break a leg tonite! Wish I could be there!
Erich Von Kneip	Jul 16 2007 11:19 AM I am now officially afraid of whatever else you people are hiding up your collective sleeves.
3 Leg Torso	Jul 15 2007 11:07 PM Well hello, Vermouth. How is the Summer treating you? we missed you in June, but we'll be back down in the Fall. See you then! Cheers!
Gologan	Jul 15 2007 1:43 AM Hey Vermouth- Any chance of an eastern european tour this summer?? We'd love to see y'all again live! Greetings from Sofia! Angela + Gologan
B is for Baroness	Jul 5 2007 4:47 PM Thanks for the enjoyable food, pool, and company. It was great to see you all again, let's do it more often! Have fun in NYC.... go see the show!
Erich Von Kneip	Jul 5 2007 3:16 PM Thanks for inviting me out to the lair to celebrate our independence from the British occupation. Those damn imperialists.
