Explore the depths of Americana "one trippy tune at a time" with New York’s Slambovian Circus of Dreams. Voted "Best Band" by NY’s Chronogram Magazine for their rootsy, rockin’ psychedelia, the Slambovians' deep connection with audiences and exciting live shows are legendary. Musical influences of Dylan, Bowie, Incredible String Band, Syd Barrett, and The Waterboys can be heard, yet the Slambovians' musicianship and critically acclaimed songwriting stand on their own. Joziah (the resident shaman of Slambovia), leads with vocals described as "soothing and bewitching as a snake oil tonic.” Longtime bandmates Tink Lloyd (accordion, cello, mandolin, flute) and guitarist/mandolin wizard Sharkey McEwen bring their magic to the Slambovian brew with “a little help from their friends” - RJ McCarty (keys, bass, sax), Bob Torsello (bass), and Matthew Abourezk (drums). This Woodstock-tinged psychedelia has a hint of southern rock and British folk combined with solid songwriting - a slice of Americana pie that is irresistible! The band’s latest studio release, A Very Unusual Head is considered to be “their finest work to date,” according to Rock’n’Reel Magazine, UK. The Waterboys’ Anthony Thistlethwaite is featured on A Very Unusual Head, and singer-songwriter Dar Williams, who also covers the Slambovians’ “Sullivan Lane” on her latest album.
