Watch Heart Bones double your pleasure at Rock the Garden
July 20, 2019
Sean Tillmann and Sabrina Ellis toured together in 2016 and immediately bonded over what they describe as a kindred quality of over-the-top showmanship, and their new collaboration is a wild romp through doo wop, musical theater, and dance music.
The two performers stepped onstage in coordinated primary-colored outfits, their color scheme almost as loud and playful as their synth-laden pop. Heart Bones played songs from their forthcoming debut album, which nods sonically and lyrically to the pulsing pop sounds of the '80s. "Don't put baby in a corner," they sang, while an actual bucket-hat wearing baby bounced to the beat.
Tillmann and Ellis also pulled out a song from their Dirty Dancing tour, their Auto-Tune cover of Eric Carmen's "Hungry Eyes."
