In Mayhem and Majesty, the sonic hooligans of Squonk Opera push the boundaries of musical athleticism and visual wizardry, while asking the question…“What does music look like?”

Each song evokes different atmospheres and dynamics, which are made vivid through mesmerizing projections and constantly transforming scenery. One moment you are alone in a swarm of stars with a gently swaying keyboard and a sparse lullaby your only guide. The next, you see how romance is just a series of cell mutations set to post-punk beats.

The Squonkers journey from the depths of moody minimalism to the heights of gypsy rock raucous delight. And our award-winning multimedia canvas takes your eyes to those wondrous places your ears have long kept secret.

”Mayhem and Majesty is a tsunami of sound and light…a hypnotic celebration of musical sound and what that sound does to the soul.” – Pittsburgh Magazine "a score that ranges from haunting lullaby to overwhelming cacophony" - City Paper "a musical experience that's colorful, chaotic, spiky, elegant, sensuous and surreal" - Tribune-Review "the band embraces live music and video, movement, film, props and lighting to 'show' what music looks like" - Post-Gazette Go to Media for full articles.
