Sirsy “Coming Into Frame”

(Funzalore) 2 person co-ed rock n roll is usually minimalistic and raw (with the Dresden Dolls exception, but that was just ridiculous), but drummer/vocalist Mel from Sirsy is so polished and dramatic and big sounding that Sirsy, even on a bluesy spare tracks like “Cannonball” or a “sing-along-with-the-pre-programmed Casio-setting” tune like “Gold” seems like mega-rock superstars. On this, their latest, best CD (and I have releases by them going back to around 2008 – these are vets!) the theatrical, emotional vocals, often with matching guitar sounds, raise the Sirsy bar!
