The Carny Villains are a 6 piece circus show band playing stomping swing and ska all rolled out live and kicking with the riotous energy of punk rock. Formed to be the house band with The Invisible Circus they have gone on to storm stages across Europe from festivals such as Fusion and Glastonbury to their namesake Carny Ville in Bristol. They can tear it up with a raucous live gig, create music for theatre and circus or perform as live musical installations under just about any disguise you care to think of. 

Keep them dancing.



That’s the ethos that The Rin Tins have kept since their inception in early 2011 and since then the quintet have dedicated themselves to bringing folk fueled jazz jive boogie to the Bristol scene. 
They’ve been called the ‘definable Bristolian party band’ by South West music legend Cozzie O’Cozfunkel, were 'the people's choice'  at Shambala 2014 and described as ‘splendid gypsy rockabilly’ by The Zen Hussies own Jules Landau. 
With music that combines dark folk tales with swing jazz rhythms and pounding oompa beats, for the past year The Rin Tins have been filling dance floors across Bristol. 
Their debut album ‘Tales of Pride & Shame is available on Itunes, Amazon and Spotify and the follow-up, 'One More Roll of the Dice' was released in October, 2014.

Benjamin Akira Tallamy is a British-born solo artist from Exeter.

Renowned for his dark, challenging lyrics and inventive musical style, his fairytale-esque songs often interweave themes of murder and lost-love - utilising quirky song-structures and timing, to almost theatrical effect.

Although his work draws on countless musical influences, it is often his intense vocal style which is most affecting – raw, haunting and tainted with a playful malevolence, his words cut to the bone.
