Everyone Leaves Alive
Everyone Leaves Alive is a musical audio drama about a rock band that solves monster problems. The members of small, struggling indie band Everyone Leaves Alive know something most people don’t: music can be magical. As in, under the right conditions, it can literally manifest magic. Which is lucky because many mythological creatures are secretly also real, from harmless skunk apes to not-so-harmless demons and vampires. Together, the band tours the U.S., playing mostly smaller venues and using their gifts to solve paranormal issues on the side—without violence whenever possible. Life on the road isn’t easy when you’ve gotta worry about counteracting the more traditional “kill the beast”-style monster hunters and negotiating a fair contract for performing a gig for the Fae King. But with friendship, humor, a dash of queer romance, and the occasional sing-along, our plucky rock band just might prevail—and even get their affairs in order enough to finish recording their single.
