This week I have singer/songwriter Grace McKagan.

Welcome to Creeper’s vampire era. The English quintet crawled out of the shadows once again—on Friday 13th, no less, to commence a new chapter with their outlandish third album, Sanguivore. The album contains their most grandiose, daring, and dark material to date. Knowing their penchant for all things gothic and ghoulish, telling a story revolving around vampires would seem as natural to them as wearing all-black.
