The Slambovian Circus of Dreams
21st August 2022
This gig is for a seated audience.
A rootsy rockin' psychedelica, the Slambovian Circus of Dreams has been expanding the borders of the Americana genre with their fantastic stories and performance since forming in Sleepy Hollow, New York.
Their connection with audiences taps into a greater human-ness and captivates. Joined onstage by bandmates Tink Lloyd (accordion, cello, mandolin, flute) and the guitar-slinging skills of Sharkey McEwen, the Slambovians create a show that is constantly evolving "with a little help from their friends".
2022’s line-up includes RJ MacCarthaigh (bass, keys, sax), and Matthew Abourezk (drums).
Elements of Dylan, Bowie, Incredible String Band, Syd Barrett, and The Waterboys flavor the musical mix (Waterboys founding member Anthony Thistlethwaite appears on the new album). Add a good dose of Woodstock-era psychedelia framed in solid songwriting, and you have it.
