The Weisstronauts/The Carnivals — live event
$20 adv/$25 doors Doors 8The Weisstronauts are a hard-to-pigeonhole instrumental ensemble. (Are they a surf band? A boozy lounge act? A countrified chicken-pickin’ combo? A tripped out psych band? A freak-rock monstrosity? A spy movie theme time machine? All of the above?)Led by Boston-based producer/engineer/mixer Pete Weiss, The ‘Nauts have toured all over the east coast and sometimes farther, releasing seven full-length albums and four mini-albums. Their latest release, “Hamming It Down,” peaked at #3 on the national alt-country radio chart in the spring of 2023. As Mojo Flucke of Popdose.com put it, “Hamming It Down continues the Weisstronauts' decades-long string of some of most well put-together instrumental albums I've ever heard. You can hear shades of everyone from Buck Owens to Wes Montgomery up in there."Or in the words of Richard Bouchard of Boston Band Crush, the band likes to “toss major surf rock influences into a blender with everything else they’ve ever even sort of liked and pull out songs built on combinations that look insane on paper but absolutely kill once you hear them."www.weisstronauts.comNew Orleans meets Gloucester Ma. The Carnivals out their own spin on 50’s RnB with frontman Kevin Patey (Raging Teens/Jittery Jack) adding piano, sax and a full band sound topped off with second vocals from Kea Romani. The ultimate fun time party band!The Carnivals
