Recently voted "Best Band of 2022" by Chronogram Magazine (upstate New York's premier curator of arts and culture), the Slambovian Circus of Dreams continue to build their legend expanding borders of the Americana genre with a rootsy rockin' psychedelica, fantastic stories and performance. Forming in the late 90’s in Sleepy Hollow, New York, the band’s music is a mix of Washington Irving, Woodstock and British Invasion with “the entire root system of Rock Family Trees embedded in Longo’s voice.”- The Big Issue, Scotland, U.K.

Touring in support of their recent release, "A Very Unusual Head", the band had a full year touring here and in the UK headlining the Wickham Festival, Fairport’s Cropredy Festival, and more. Their connection with audiences at shows taps into a greater human-ness and captivates. Elements of Dylan, Bowie, Incredible String Band, Syd Barrett and The Waterboys flavor the musical mix (Waterboys co-founder Anthony Thistlethwaite is on the band’s new album).

“Soothing and bewitching as a snake oil tonic", the voice of Joziah Longo is center ring… Longo is joined onstage by bandmates Tink Lloyd (accordion, cello, mandolin, flute) and the guitar-slinging skills of Sharkey McEwen. The Slambovians create a show that is constantly evolving "with a little help from their friends". Current touring rhythm section includes RJ McCarty (bass, keys, sax), Bob Torsello (bass), and Matthew Abourezk (drums).
