What is Shivaree?
"When I looked it up, it said, 'A drunken serenade involving pots and pans,'" the 28-year-old Parsley said in March before performing at a Chicago bar. "And that kind of sounded like us."
What can I say about someone named Ambrosia Parsley who likes to sleep with her twin brother when she goes home? "It's nothing weird or anything." They "just like to watch the cartoons in the morning."
Seriously, I like this band, Shivaree. I found them where I make most of my new discoveries, at a listening station at Tower Records. Ambrosia Parsley sings and "fronts" the three member band. The other band members are equally interesting, Duke McVinnie and Danny McGough.
