The Seedy Seeds Announce New Album And Spring Tour

Cincinnati’s The Seedy Seeds have a new album, Verb Noun, and you can listen to the title track here! The band was formed in 2005 and this first track shows us exactly how well they’ve perfected their sound in those few years. You get to have a classic electronic dance beat mixed with an earthy feeling thanks to Mike Ingram’s banjo and a hint of the sound of horses riding in the background in the rhythm. You can listen to the song “Verb Noun” below:
