Gardenella Dingledart is Marge Gardenella, cello player for the weirdo Austin band Attic Ted. I have been following her on Soundcloud where she posts her lo-fi songs of mostly organ and voice. Her lyrics are dark, crass, funny and sometimes sweet, yammered and cooed over wheezing organ, farty sounds and rhythm box- a lot of it reminds me of the soundtracks to Cafe Flesh and Liquid Sky. My favorite track is "The Plague" where the tale of viscera and garbage flushed down the toilet is sung over burpy and manic classical figures and haunted house organ grinding.
I think I'm in love.
(with Bea Arthur.)

Fantastic music and name! Some of her solo pieces fondly remind me of Nora Keyes.
