Cousins

Byevolvefestival
 

Halifax, NS

Cousins is bare-bones garage-rock power group. Formed in 2009 by Aaron Mangle, the shape shifting group features Leigh Dotey and Pat Ryan who help manifest Mangle’s quirky vision of sweet n’ heavy raucous pop music in a live show that is both poetic and violent. They tip toe between melody and anarchy, creating sounds startling in their delivery while familiar in their arrangement.
