Bored Housewife are a two piece from Belfast, Northern Ireland. The band members are Justin McKeown and Meabh McDonnell . Bored housewife write happy twisted songs to relieve the monotony of everyday life. They love the smell of flowers and glue. They're inspired by endless amounts of shitty television and playing computer games, trips to pound stores (dollar store's if you're American), and people they meet in Belfast.
