About this concert
Trio show featuring Joziah, Tink, and Sharkey of The Slambovian Circus of Dreams
Voted best Hudson Valley band of 2022 by Chronogram Magazine, Slambovian Circus of Dreams will perform in a rare unplugged trio performance by the acclaimed band’s founding members. Charismatic front man Joziah Longo, whose vocals have been described as “bewitching,” will be joined onstage by bandmates Tink Lloyd (accordion, cello, mandolin, flute) and the extraordinary guitar-slinging Sharkey McEwen.
Since the late 90’s in Sleepy Hollow, New York, the Slambovian Circus of Dreams, part rootsy, part rocking, part psychedelic, has been captivating audiences with their unique sound and human-connecting lyrics. With elements of Dylan, Bowie, The Incredible String Band and Syd Barrett, the band blends Woodstock-tinged psychedelia, a hint of southern rock, and superb songwriting into their own unique brand of Americana music. Their music has garnered such musician fans as: Garth Hudson (The Band), Dar Williams, Gary Burke (Bob Dylan, Joe Jackson), and Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull).
This Hudson Valley band “[takes] the stage by storm,” according to the New York Times, and has been described by All Music as “simply one of the finest American bands.” Come hear them play from their deep catalog and from "A Very Unusual Head," named one of the "Best Albums of 2022" (Rock’n’Reel Magazine, U.K.), before they go off to appear at festivals throughout the U.S., Canada, and Europe.
“Longo is an awesome songwriter.” – Garth Hudson, The Band
"Great songs and a whole lotta heart" -- Meg Griffin, SiriusXM
"They're not just a band. That's like saying the Bible is just a book..." – Fairfield County Weekly

The Slambovian Circus of Dreams Biography
"Top albums of 2022" – Rock’n’Reel Magazine, UK
"They take the stage by storm!" – NY Times
"Best Band of 2022" – Chronogram Magazine, NY
A rootsy rockin' psychedelica, the Slambovian Circus of Dreams have been expanding the borders of the Americana genre with fantastic stories and performances since the late 90’s in Sleepy Hollow, New York.
Voted "Best Band of 2022" in their home state of New York by Chronogram Magazine, the Slambovians' connection with audiences taps into a greater human-ness. Charismatic frontman, Joziah Longo presides center-ring with vocals "Soothing and bewitching as a snake oil tonic", joined onstage by founding bandmates Tink Lloyd (accordion, cello, mandolin, flute) and the guitar-slinging skills of Sharkey McEwen, creating a show that constantly evolves "with a little help from their friends". Touring bandmates also include RJ McCarty (bass, keys, sax), Bob Torsello (bass), and Matthew Abourezk (drums).
Exploring the depths of Americana one trippy tune at a time, elements of Dylan, Bowie, Incredible String Band, Syd Barrett and The Waterboys flavor the musical mix. (Waterboys co-founder Anthony Thistlethwaite is featured on A Very Unusual Head). Woodstock-tinged psychedelia, a hint of southern rock and solid songwriting elevates this version of Americana to new heights.
Currently touring their sixth studio release, A Very Unusual Head is considered to be "Their finest work to date." - Rock’n’Reel Magazine, UK.
Fans of the band include: Garth Hudson (The Band), Dar Williams, Anthony Thistlethwaite (The Waterboys), Gary Burke (Bob Dylan, Joe Jackson), Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull).
