Evansville, IN – From the moment they entered the Victory Theatre as a marching drumline in full costume on Friday night, even audience members previously unfamiliar with funk/soul/R&B group Here Come the Mummies knew that they were in for a concert experience like no other. This is a show that has to be seen to be believed, featuring, among other things, band members covered literally head to toe in “ancient†rags and face paint, hilariously suggestive songs, and a gorilla playing a Cow Belt. But don’t let their onstage antics fool you – this band displays superb muscianship and vocals, which is obviously appreciated by their loyal fans.
“We were excited to introduce a band as unique as this one to Evansville,†said Victory Theatre General Manager Ben Bolander. “It was an entertaining show, and if you missed it this year, we hope to bring them back to give you another opportunity to fly your freak flag.â€
The Victory Theatre continues to be active with upcoming shows that include SPANK! The Fifty Shades Parody May 22, B.B. King June 5, Jagged Edge June 15, and Gregg Allman June 25. The Evansville Philharmonic Orchestra will also present performances on April 27, and May 18 & 19.
The Victory Theatre is managed by VenuWorks of Evansville, LLC.
