Carousel Circus

About Me


Our brand of unique rock blended with country and folk influences comes with a guarantee to make you drink, dance and fight! Yee Ha! On our travels away from the Mustard Factory we have managed to share the stage with acts such as The Voom Blooms, Kill The Young, The Elements and Deluka just to name a few, at venues all over the country, including Birmingham and Islington Bar Academy's, Birmingham and Camden Barfly's and Liverpool's Cavern Club.
Sometimes things can be quite hard, as a mustard cutter's wage can't always stretch to the electricity bill. At times like this we have to light the candles and play on the old wooden guitars, which has led to us performing live tracks from our acoustic album 'Russian #1' on both BBC and Kerrang! radio stations.
Our songs all revolve around the life of a mustard cutter, with all the highs and lows, so we hope you folks all enjoy it now.
Anyway it's time for us to go now, the whistle's blowin' and mustard don't cut itself you know.
