The Slambovian Circus of Dreams @ Towne Crier Cafe

Towne Crier Cafe, Beacon, NY

This Towne Crier show is the band's final show before their much anticipated UK 2024 tour which begins on June 12th. This “must attend” event is also a chance to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of “A Good Thief Tips His Hat" with the band - hear rarely performed songs from the “Good Thief” album at this show!
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) and Matthew Abourezk (drums).
