The Debutante Hour

About Me

THE DEBUTANTE HOUR EP!

***********************************The Debutante Hour - the exalted hour of debutantes, where life is an endless cotillion with a full dance card. Maria, Susan and Mia conjure up an hour of accordion, cello, and drums on songs about any given thing in a debutante's head - lost love, weird love, guitar heros and the devil (sometimes in Ukrainian).

Band Website: www.thedebutantehour.com
Band Members: Susan and Maria (and Mia when we can get her or when she'll let herself be had!)
Influences:

Sounds Like: Lawrence Welk if he grew up in the 80's listening to New Order and Ella Fitzgerald. Like the Mandrell Sisters if they grew up in the suburbs outside of D.C. and learned traditional Ukrainian songs from their mother and blues piano from a Jewish civil rights lawyer.
Type of Label: Major
