The Slambovian Circus Of Dreams
May 31, 2024

8:30pm

Towne Crier Cafe, 379 Main Street Beacon

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. This Woodstock-tinged Americana has a hint of southern rock, British folk combined with solid songwriting – a slice of Americana pie that is irresistible! Dylan, Bowie, Syd Barrett, Tom Petty, and The Waterboys can be heard, yet the Slambovians’ musicianship and critically acclaimed songwriting stand on their own.

Joziah Longo (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 own magic to the Slambovian brew with “a little help from their friends” – RJ McCarty (keys, bass, sax), Bob Torsello (bass), and Matthew Abourezk(drums).

“They take the stage by storm!” – NY Times
“Great songs and a whole lotta heart” – Meg Griffin, SiriusXM
“”Simply one of the finest American bands” – All Music
“The cool end of Americana” – Maverick Magazine, UK
