![]() Website Contact: pollypanic@gmail.com Polly Panic is a two-piece cello-rock outfit fronted by songwriter and cello virtuoso Jenette Mackie. Mackie was trained classically at Crane School Of Music in Potsdam NY, but chose to drop out of her curriculum early to pursue her own independent study with a private tutor. Soon after she began building on her life-long vision of twisting the classical cello to the dark side of music. Jenette built Polly Panic on the back of an electrified and often distorted cello married with manic-depressive drums & Plathic like lyrics. Hardly delicate, the music of Polly Panic delivers intense range of emotion and flirts with anger and sarcasm through hissing cello strings and whispers of sweet nothing. Compared to the vocal stylings of PJ Harvey & Tori Amos, Mackie wails out powerfully in charismatic tones that scream to be heard and will not be denied. Bow in hand, she attacks each verse of song with rabid symphony, leaping anxiously up the scales & then plunging back down to the resonating sound of the cello’s bottom lows. The result is a sound truly beautiful, dark and unforgettable. ![]() MP3s: Pretty Pissing from Painkiller ![]() ![]() |
