S is for Seeed

I found this talented gang thanks to my partner discovering German solo artist Peter Fox. This dynamo sings lead on a lot of Seeed’s songs. And no, the extra E is not a typo, by the way. Their offbeat material is a real treat and makes for a great workout play-list. I hope other club members don't mind me dancing a little. ~grin~ Expect irreverent lyrics and a great reggae beat. Yes. German reggae. Sung in English. Amazing stuff.


My mock group bears the name Papercut, though their music is not nearly so annoying. I’ve decided they have a female drummer who could hold her own with Godsmack’s talented guy Shannon Larkin. I guess his unlikely first name inspired me to imagine this drummer female.

Um... I'm a goofball. Thank you, Liz A. for pointing out that I somehow used the letter P for my phony group. How about Shannon's Papercut? ~grin~ Guess I was daydreaming when I posted this.

  2. Somehow German and reggae don't seem to go together. I grew up in a German community and all we had was opera and polkas. This is educational.

  3. Well now I am amazed. Presently, I am living in Germany and I have been here for quite sometime and I've never heard of them. It is time for me to look them up.

    Thank you.

    1. Ooh, how do you like living there? I visited with my high school choir and saw Austria and Switzerland briefly, as well, on our whirlwind tour. Unfortunately, my teenage self lived in a haze of hormones and I recall very little. I need to relocate the photo album my mother kept (she got to chaperone!).

    1. Oh, my goodness! How silly of me. I changed a few posts and completely missed this. Thank you!

  5. Nothing like a group, which makes you down your blog and dance, eh? :) I love the idea of your 'S' being Shannon Larkin, drummer of Papercut! :) Nothing like a blog arc! :) Not to mention I'm already visualizing all the stories Shannon has to tell, drumming in the background, as she watches the other performers in action. :)

    1. Thank you for the awesome comment! I should share with you that Shannon is actually male. Unusual, isn't it? If you care to read, there is a neat Wikipedia article on him here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon_Larkin
      Be well, my dear!

  6. Papercut sounds like they might have some controversial lyrics.

  7. German reggae - I never imagined but this rocks. And Papercut is a great name for a band.
