Manta Does “Doctor Who” Music Video | Cult Sci-Fi Theme Covered on Australian TV Show “Spicks and Specks”

24 sec read

Australian music quiz show Spicks and Specks has brought us some amazing quirky talent, from the beer drinking Christa Hughes to the mildly super-powered Dave O’Doherty.

This week it introduced us to Manta, a world music outfit with a love for cult science fiction.

It seems unlikely that a band featuring a cello, an acoustic guitar, and a didgeridoo could work. But this unusual blend delivers one of the best versions of the Doctor Who theme music that I’ve ever heard.

Rather than relying on laughs as so many other acts on Spicks and Specks do, Manta simply do their thing. Let’s face it; when you’re this good you don’t need gimmicks.
