The Sisters Of Transistors are a Combo Organ Quartet and Ladies Social Club. They play a selection of fully working exhibition organs with an emphasis on the Italian models from the early 1970s accompanied on drums by museum curator Prof Vernon World. Repertoire includes a mixture of originals in the style of baroque disco prog and classics from the golden age of Horror OST. They have a heavily amplified sound known as “The Wall of Cheese”, using restored British and Soviet amplification systems from the vaults of the museum.
