Joe's Pub says…

Avant-Chanteuse Carol Lipnik and her wildly eclectic accompanist, the maniacal keyboardist Dred Scott, conjure an authentic Coney Island Parlor Punk that is by turns, phantasmagorical, carnivalesque, gleefully macabre, and irresistibly compelling. Lipnik's dramatic 4-octave voice coupled with her poetic genre-defying songs (many from the point of view of lovelorn beasts and freaks) are thrilling, chilling and heartbreaking with shades of Laura Nyro, Joni Mitchell, Lenya/Brecht/Weill, and the Creature From The Black Lagoon. Joining them will be Tim Luntzel on upright bass, Diego Voglino on drums and percussion, and Rob Sudduth on saxophones. www.mermaidalley.com

 

Villa Delirium is a five piece ensemble whose uniquely ethereal sound creates a new possibility for acoustic Gothic music. VD's starkly original compositions (written by John Kruth and Tine Kindermann, both together and individually) reveal traces of Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht, the Incredible String Band and traditional murder ballads of the American South. Germany and Ireland.
