A local band utilizes cardboard masks to create quirky characters that have become a staple of their performances–so much so that the crowd now dons the masks as well–dancing freely with the anonymity that a face-covering affords.
The band, Attic Ted, has had many members throughout the years, but is currently composed of Grady Roper, the lead singer who plays various instruments and Coby Cardosa on drums.
The band recently celebrated its 21st birthday at the Porch in San Marcos. The show had a unique lineup that, in addition to Attic Ted, was composed of Pili Coït, a French twoperson band with a chaotic and cool rock sound and Lovely Little Girls, a seven- piece ensemble with a haunting, melodic tone– both, much like the main act, are hard to label under any particular genre.
