Bonnie & the Mere Mortals

Bonnie & the Mere Mortals are a Southern Gothic outfit that sound like what would happen if Dolly Parton ever met the Cure. Their signature blend of Appalachian Americana with Synthwave and Shoegaze has brought them all around the surrounding regions with a fast growing audience of everyone from cowboys to goth rockers, from Nashville to New York. Bonnie Ramone grew up on a 103 acre cattle farm on the border of the West Virginian panhandle in a town with 3 stop signs, a 2 lane bowling alley, and 1 working clown. Despite this fact, she can mostly be found dancing like a member of the Peanuts to Depeche Mode on any given Saturday. She reconciles this dichotomy in her music, and doesn't seem to find any difference in them: infection hooks, guitar with too much reverb and tremolo, catchy bass lines, and introspective lyrics that tell a sad story... is it Hank or the Cure? Does it matter? Bonnie & the Mere Mortals equally sounds like something you've never heard before and something you've been hearing your whole life. A genre bend that draws you in, but is as easy on the eyes as it is on the ears. A project that's pretty sure Hank done it this way, but Robert Smith was on the money as well. www.bonnieandthemeremortals.com
