| After Jann's successes in Poland and Australia, he was admitted into the US as "alien of extraordinary ability." Since completing his collaboration with Veronique, he is working on orchestrations for a new rock opera, with the legendary Jon Anderson, of the mega- progrock band Yes. Find out more about him here: http://Composing.com (Haul-E-Weird) |

About Veronique: Known as The "Weird Val" of Cabaret, for her hilarious parodies and side-splitting covers. (Imagine if Jim Morrison and Elvira had a love child with a French accent). Deemed "too extreme for Simon" she was gonged off the first season of "America's Got Talent", after only 20 seconds, which only proves her gifts are wasted on the masses. She is the recipient of The Unanimous Choice Award for Best Indie Cabaret Artist by the Los Angeles Music Awards.

| Veronique and Jann couldn't agree on a title and the song was initially "Spooky Garlic Dracula Polka", but neither of them really liked it. When a replacement was not easily forthcoming, one evening, Veronique half-joking/half-serious, turned to the portrait of Frank Zappa that hangs in Jann's studio and beseeched the venerable dead composer to give them guidance for a new song title. Within seconds, a light bulb went off above her head and the words "Vampire Surprise" issued from her lips for the first time... (Haul-E-Weird) |
