The Extraordinaires
An indie rock group from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania currently signed to Punk Rock Payroll in South Philly, The Extraordinaires are a unique act. Their albums are released as handmade, hand-screened cloth-bound storybooks. Their shows are theatrical and energetic. Their singer's guitar is shaped like a fish.
The Extraordinaires have produced three full-length albums to date. Their first, "Ribbons of War," is a brilliant themed CD telling the operatic love tale of the brooding Captain, the fair Annelies, and their forbidden love. Their second full-length - "Short Stories" - is a collection of stand-alones featuring tracks such as "The Arsonist" "Warehouse Song" and "Neighborhood Watch". In '08 they opened for Man Man on their acclaimed US tour and released "Battle of the Vans" a split 7-inch with label mates Kill You in the Face.
The Extraordinaires' newest album, entitled "Electric and Benevolent," is set for release on June 19th, 2009, as they kick off their US summer tour in Philadelphia.
