Known for taking the stage by storm, this uniquely talented group brings their captivating performance to a historic venue for an unforgettable night of music.NY’s Slambovian Circus of Dreams delivers a cool mix of southern rock, Celtic and British folk combined with solid songwriting - a slice of Americana pie that is irresistible! Joziah Longo leads the Slambovians with vocals described as "soothing and bewitching as a snake oil tonic.” Bandmates include: Tink Lloyd (accordion, cello, flute), guitar-mandolin wizard Sharkey McEwen, RJ McCarty (keys, banjo), bassist 'Baba' Bob Torsello, and Matthew Abourezk (drums) - who all bring magic to the immersive Slambovian brew. 
“A breath of fresh air in a sometimes stagnant world - especially as a live act - with varied eclectic influences and great musicianship. Plus moustaches, hats and stage presence gild their Interesting and thought-provoking lyrics for the curious adult mind.” – Ian Anderson, Jethro Tull
"Longo is an awesome songwriter" – Garth Hudson, The Band
"Great songs and a whole lotta heart" – Meg Griffin, Sirius diSorDer, SiriusXM
