The wonderfully named sextet Teen Girl Scientist Monthly hail from New York. Theirs is a world of stomping indie rock, marrying pulsating percussion with epic orchestral violin and adding a topping of effervescent male/female vocals.

Dipping their toes in everything from country to post-punk they kick up a shitstorm of high energy sound that is as diverse as it is original, but never less than 100% engaging.

Five track debut EP Pioneer Ghost is available from their Bandcamp page for $5, and you can dip your own toes in the world of TGSM by watching the six-way split screen video for the brilliant, all out toe tapper, Safari below.
