Ford Theatre Reunion
The Ford Theatre Reunion – Lexington, Kentucky has never produced such an original band in it’s entire history. Self proclaimed Sludgefunkcircuspunk may not do this Vaudevillian Mad Scientist Prog band full justice. They are the definition of a “Must See Live” band. Local Prog Rock maniacs, The Maw, were so smitten with TFTR that they got married in a joint show last year. Mix Clarinet, Accordion, Banjo, Keyboard, Bass, Guitar, and Drums and you will find yourself neck deep in the Joyful Mustache Twisting music of this brilliant band! A musical journey that is worth taking over and over again.
