"East Coast kool kids Skeeter could plug that overlong gap left by Husker Du and early 80's era Elvis Costello / Joe Jackson ... combining meaty chords with succulent hooks that weave a curious yet intoxicating fabric ... that nibbles away under the skin to bask you beneath glowing skies and the tender chill of introspective solitude." -- Losing Today, UK
Welcome to the happy world of Skeeter, East coast power-pop phenoms. We write songs about all the normal stuff (eg: car crashes, prison, comas, voodoo dolls, stalkers, etc.) that occurs in our everyday, boring lives.
