Featuring original swing, Americana, and vaudevillian flashback songs of love and longing, fire and ice-- penned by Emmy winning songwriter David Williams--Trickster Carousel's sound is inspired by the 1930's era Jazz Manouche of Django Reinhardt, the vocal stylings of Marlene Dietricht and Ella Fitzgerald, storytellers like Leonard Cohen and Tom Waits. We tip our hats to the bold and the brazen, the ones who embody joie de vivre, the cabaret dwellers in the shadowy nightlife of a century ago.
