Description

A Winter Situation Thing brings you THE WATTINGERS

THE WATTINGERS are a 3 piece act performing against a backdrop of synchronized videos.

The music is simply described as ?Slaughterhouse Blues?; stripped down to the bare bones, inspired by old blues and prison ?hollers?. Musically, The Wattingers are influenced by The Birthday Party, Screaming Jay Hawkins, The Bad Seeds, Gallon Drunk, Howling Wolf, The Butthole Surfers, the Beasts Of Bourbon, Jawbone, Captain Beefheart, and Tom Waits to name but a few.

The Wattingers embrace the wide diversity of industrial gothic, steam western, steam punk and other subcultures that exist and strive against narrow and restrictive definitions.
