You may remember the Carnival Band from Parade of the Lost Souls, Illuminares, the Car-Free festival on Commercial Drive, Komasket Music festival, Starbelly Jam, the Orange Party, the Gay Pride parade, Under the Volcano, a Work Less Party Party, or from a wedding we've played. We're a twentyish to thirtyish group of horns, percussionists, and strings (bass, fiddle, banjo) who dress in costume and play funky, jazzy, world groove.
We're looking to build a perminent section of dancers and flag bearers (or jugglers or poi spinners). You'd be a part of the group, but instead of playing music you'd bring good vibes.
Honk! Fest in Massachusetts was inspiring, because various groups had their performers, dancers, and vibe-adding friends travelling with them to be part of the show (some from as far as California)- you can check out pictures of us and all the others bands and performers at www.flickr.com/groups/honk2006/pool/
The musical style of the wild marching band is growing around the world, and is embodied by groups such as the Hungry March Band of New York (the band at the end of Shortbus), Tonic Tonic Tonic Brass Band of Paris, Tuten und Blasen of Hamburg, Pink Puffers of Rome, and Rhythms of Resistance in London. (We have links to the increasing number of street bands like this on our website: www.thecarnivalband.com/links.html )
