CURTIS ELLER'S AMERICAN CIRCUS - UK FESTIVAL DATES 2015

CURTIS ELLER'S AMERICAN CIRCUS - UK FESTIVAL DATES 2015, mid-June to mid-August TOURING THE UK for the festival season 2015 mid-June to mid-August (t CURTIS ELLER'S AMERICAN CIRCUS - UK FESTIVAL DATES 2015, mid-June to mid-August OLD TIME RELIGION - Curtis Eller's American Circus 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. 'Sugar in my coffin' - CURTIS ELLER The latest incarnation of the band has spent a year sharpening their skills in the burlesque houses, beer halls and underground theatres of the Carolina Piedmont. After touring the US, Europe and Canada relentlessly, the time has come for Eller and the band to descend into the Carolinian song-mines to begin unearthing material for their next phonographic recording. This time listeners will be treated to a fresh collection of show tunes, dance fads and gospel music whose lyrics are populated by two-bit prize fighters, Hollywood has-beens, grave-robbers and forgotten pop-stars. There's a fictional campaign song for Herbert Hoover, and at least one song about the filth and corruption of the Chicago meatpacking industry of the 1890's.

Faustus @ Lincoln Drill Hall Tuesday 07 Oct 2014 8pm 

Nominated in the 2009 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, the Faustus triumvirate are 3 of the leading lights of their generation: Saul Rose (Waterson:Carthy, Whapweazel), Benji Kirkpatrick (Seth Lakeman Band, Bellowhead) and Paul Sartin (Bellowhead, Belshazzar’s Feast). They have a plethora of experience between them, brought together here in a virtuosic display of musicianship and testosterone. Rooted deeply in the English tradition, in 2007 they received a 75th Anniversary Award from the English Folk Dance and Song Society.

‘A blend of energy and musicianship that establishes this trio as one of Britain’s outstanding folk band’ The Guardian
