SID SQUID and the TENTACLES
|
Sid squid and the Tentacles are a raunchy rock band that records predominantly uptempo songs with a British punk-rock feel.
They were originally a Seasick Steve tribute band known as Sick Squid and Keep the Change, but the sea change of Covid forced them to reevaluate their briney lives. After a lot of soul and mantle searching, cephalopod rehab sessions, etc, they came up with the following mission statement; escape the undercurrents of the biz, become egomanics, achieve worldwide fame, become household names (preferably Chateau Squid or Bleach) and retire to our own ocean-sized aquariums by December 2022.
