About Me


We hope the information below helps you; if not, then see a doctor. We try but can only do our best.
BareBones and Cabaret : ramshackle country pop
By way of brief bio they came into existence when exiled Englishman Matt Yearbook, solo singer/songwriter (see topfriends for link) wanted to break free from the lonesome travels and create a band that makes music like what he hears deep within the corridors of his mind : which is not nearly as sinister as it sounds, really. . .
Formed to a fully functional standard BB&C played their first gig early in 2008. With styles flitting between acoustic folk, alt.country, dirty rock n roll and 60's soul/psychedelia.
