The Black Condor - Attic Ted

Based in San Marcos, Texas, Attic Ted has a bizarre, twisted sound that relies heavily on an old-fashioned Hammond organ, played by lead singer Grady Roper. The band's music has elements of rockabilly, country, circus music. When they perform live, the members wear large, crudely drawn masks. As he writes and performs, Roper claims to take on the persona of Attic Ted, whom he envisions as a crazy old man. The band as a whole comes across as druggy, demented and playful.
