Dear Everybody,

So there's this great rock band and acting troupe from the San Francisco area, and on the internet, called Steam Powered Giraffe. It's comprised of three incredibly talented "robots", two human back up vocalists and musicians, a fantastic sound engineer, two puppets, and a handful of additional actresses for their stage performance.

Not only does this band have a remarkable harmonics and range, but they write, produce, and master all of their music, book their own shows, manage their own band, and create all of the costume designs and artwork for their act.

Plus they have an in-depth lore surrounding the act and a lot of fan participation and involvement. Have a look!

This is their most popular track: Honeybee

But they have a lot of different styles: Rex Marksley, a tale of a cowboy samurai engineer from the wild west, Suspender Man, the story of a man who sold his soul to the bog for amazing banjo skills and handsome red suspenders, and Fire Fire, a song about a disaster out in space.

Then, just for silliness, a cover of Rihanna's Diamonds. The Spine's range and awesomeness totally upstage Rihanna's version. >_> Plus there's a puppet in this one. Who doesn't love puppets?

That's all! I just thought I'd share one of the most awesome things ever.
