Presented by Qld Cabaret Festival 23
SILVER SIRCUS
Saturday April 15
8:30pm
The Old Museum
Silver Sircus bring their spine-tingling concoction of dark cabaret performance, post-rock and chamber folk to one of Brisbane's best loved and most atmospheric spaces - The Old Museum.
Led by two stalwarts of the Brisbane music/performance scene - vocalist/songwriter Lucinda Shaw and drummer/composer James Lees - Silver Sircus conjure a highly eclectic world of sound, songs and compelling performance combining Shaw's poetic lyricism with their haunting, hypnotic and dramatic music textures. In varying formats, the band has been acclaimed for their performances at arts, music and LGTIQ+ festivals all over Australia and has released several singles/EPs and two albums.
At The Old Museum, Silver Sircus will perform in full 7-piece ensemble mode, bringing together rich threads from their decade-plus of music-making, a wildly reinterpreted cover or two, and songs from their new album project currently being developed.
"Silver Sircus has a musical style that is as eclectic and individual as Shaw’s compelling dark cabaret performance. Poetic lyrics, illuminated by great bass guitar, acoustic guitar textures, guitar highlights, wonderful strings and the always haunting cello, and Lees’ compositions, keys and beats." - Catherine Lawrence, Anywhere Festival Review, 2022
