TOURING
THE UK for the festival season 2015 mid-June to mid-August (there may be some
flexibility either side). Contact gail@laughingdogmusic.co.uk for availability
and bookings.
The craziest, yodelling banjo player this side of New York. It's
Vaudeville, it's Folk, it's Comedy, it's Song & Dance, it's the one and only
Curtis Eller and his American Circus. Touring mid-June to mid-August for UK
festival dates.
Having spent a decade toiling away in the musical sweatshops of New
York City, banjo player and songwriter, Curtis Eller uprooted his family and
resettled in North Carolina where he is diligently pursuing his goal of becoming
America's leading purveyor of songs about Elvis Presley and Richard Nixon!
The wild-eyed vaudevillian’s banjo-driven, rock & roll songs
describe a dreamlike vision of American history where all points in time have
collapsed into one. Past recordings have seen a ghastly parade of historical
luminaries, from Abraham Lincoln and Buster Keaton to Amelia Earhart and Joe
Louis, sharing the spotlight with a host of Civil War generals and corrupt 19th
century politicians.
