Just For Fun

Jolly Kills Steven Wilson

New York City progressive/alternative rock group Jolly just launched the first clip in a series of animated shorts called The Jollyshow. In this first episode, entitled "Jolly Kills Steven Wilson," things get messy when the lovable but naïve Jolly unknowingly meet prog idol, Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree, Storm Corrosion). Spoiler art: it doesn't end well.

Commented Jollydrummer, Louis Abramson: "The progressive rock community is truly a special one. There are so many nuances that only those on the inside could understand. We decided to pay homage and show our love to the prog world in the best way we know how - by making fun of it. The beauty about the prog community is that everyone could take a joke, or at least we hope! But really, we do believe that people will see our nonsense as an act of love. Any fan of Jolly knows that Steven Wilson is a huge influence on us.
