A musical collective of alternative, goth, rock & indie musicians from around the world brought together to breathe life into the work of Carnival Star.

Carnival Star, it could be said, started life in the late 80's when founder and heart of the project first started playing live, producing, recording and working in the live circuit behind the mixer of other bands.

Various line-ups, attempts and demos were recorded - some very rough and others with some time spent on them, but in '93 it was all over and the studio, equipment and instruments were packed away and it was over.

But music was never far away and 2013 sees the launch and start of an entirely new project - and a project is the best way to describe Carnival Star.

It may be the music of one man - but "no man is an island" and the calling of dark friends from countries as far apart as Norway, Germany, Greece, Sweden, USA, Canada and England will bring together talent from various sources to breathe life and soul into the music of Carnival Star.

Bringing vocalists, co-producers, visual artists as well as business & media promoters and old school sound techs and engineers the debut releases for Carnival Star are going to be very very interesting.


"Carnival Stars version of Velveteen evoked an epoch of good memories that I had almost forgotten... The song was born from one of my simple chord sequence that was meant to go round and round and hypnotise the listener. Live it grew to become a real corker! Cheers Carnival Star for the trip!"
Paul James Berry - Founder/Guitarist The Rose Of Avalanche

“Black Rain Down’ gives a respectful nod to the point where Post-punk and Goth were at its peak, replete with 21st Century polish and drive.”
Cruel Britannia – Pheonix Radio | Nightbreed Radio

“Both songs grove with the time and in my experience, this makes Carnival Star’s music more long-living and timeless.“
DJ Valhalla – OnAir Tunes | GothTune

“Overall, these are two very good songs and if you like HIM, The Mission or The Sisters of Mercy you will like Carnival Star.”
Mark Sharpley – Fourculture Magazine
