About Me

Mermaid Skeletons started when Joshua first saw Walt Disney's "Bambi" and decided to write a record that felt like that film. So you might say that this band is literally eighteen years in the making. Michael is a bit of a ham and admires a comfy napsack. One day while digging for truffles, Michael and Joshua bumped noggins and both quickly apologized. That was when it really started. But then there were hundreds of little darlings all standing around and then it started some more.Video made by Leigh Hagan.
