Using vernacular and primitive instruments, including musical saw and 3-string diddley bow, The Wedding Funeral weaves tradition with contemporary gothic sensibilities to create a sound that one review called “both haunting and alluring all at once”. “The Wedding Funeral is the kind of music that evokes imagery. Like the best tales told around a campfire, or in the dark under a blanket—you feel like you are being let in on an ancient secret that raises the hair on the back of your neck, and draws tears from your eyes because you refuse to blink lest you miss a single second,” says Speak of the Devil. Their first demo recording, Beneath the Floor Boards (Covered in Feces), is 4 songs and was released over the span of October to November 2017. “They gave us four songs, four songs that you will love or hate. There is no in-between. I have played this demo to an eclectic mix of friends. Some hated it, most of them loved it. And even the ones that hated it, told me there was something about these songs…something they couldn’t grasp, something eerie…and eerie it is!” says Old Style Music Nights. October of 2018, they release their debut full-length album, You Have Been Cordially Disinvited, exclusively at theweddingfuneral.com.
