Mixing up the majick at Dio’s studio this week with Sharkey and Joziah… Final tracking happening and starting to mix the album, the working title – “A Very Unusual Head”.

Take a peek behind the “Slambovian curtain” with a Slambovian Underground show!!

Band members Joziah Longo, Tink Lloyd and Sharkey McEwen appear in a limited number of engagements this year as The Slambovian Underground – a trio that performs a full complement of Slambovian standards plus some special material rarely heard at full band shows. Longo’s original and compelling songwriting combine with McEwen’s engaging electric guitar work and Lloyd’s multi-instrumental touches in an intimate setting.  These shows offers a rare opportunity to take a peek behind the “Slambovian Curtain,” to experience the inner workings and essential music-making of the original creative core of the band in a relaxed setting with artists and friends.

The trio had their debut performance at Club Passim in Cambridge in December 2018 and were immediately booked for a return engagement in June! The Slambovian Underground is engaged for a very limited run of shows, listed below. Don’t miss out on a chance to hear this format that is getting a lot of buzz right now!
