The Sideshow Prophets

Rock and Roll, Straight to the Soul

About Me

We have taken all the years of playing in bands and listening to the greatest music from all areas to create this bastardized form of Rawk and Roll. We aim to hit you in the soul and shake it up a bit. The music is a mix of Rock and Roll and old Soul, a dash of Punk, throw in some Rockabilly, and the Blues and stir for 1 min. We tell the stories of lost love of course and the holy trinity, (beer, wine, liquor). Any little thing that happens in our day to day lives ends up in our music somewhere. I guess if something happened to us sometime in our lives, it probably happened to you and you'll understand.
