"You can almost smell the gas lamps in the street & the absinthe being poured" Americana Highways
Celebrating their tenth year in 2024, Dust Bowl Faeries perform a faerie-tale medley of dark cabaret and gothic polka music, infused with a dose of witchcraft and a dusting of woodland magic. The accordion driven freak-folk ensemble hails from the New York Hudson Valley and draws inspiration from circus music, murder ballads and Eastern European folk songs. Singing saw, piano accordion, lap-steel, electric bass, percussion and acoustic guitar combine to create the Dust Bowl Faeries otherworldly sound.
Dust Bowl Faeries was founded by Ryder Cooley (‘faerie queen’) and her taxidermy spirit animal, Hazel the Ram. Ryder and Hazel are joined by Jon B. Woodin (‘rocket faerie’), Jude Roberts (‘hobbit faerie’), Rubie LaRue (‘feisty faerie’) & Andrew Stein (‘time faerie’).
