The Kid

The Epic of Gilgamesh, legend of the ancient world, hard-boiled into a detective story podcast, with a live three piece carnival funk fusion band, and a dancer. An epic cultural mash-up across the genres. Brought to you by the band from the 2016 Fringe dance production, 'A Tale of Two Tribes'. Presented by: Iron Dwarf This is a band that defies description, suffice it to say that it is a world of music and styles ranging from sublime to ferocious...a sort of world carnival funk fusion with metal and folk and Caribbean and dub and hill-billy influences, with a middle eastern outback Aussie ukulele and harmonica and belly dance style. A three piece band with a solo dancer, transcending genres and telling stories to make audiences head's spin. With bass, harmonica and cajun, the music is bigger than you would think a three piece could produce, writing songs and choreographing dances to reinvigorate a jaded world and make us all believe in the power of funk to transform lives.
