Dream Until You Die CD 2006 - Martin Martini and The Bone Palace Orchestra

Description

With a sound that fuses funk with junk, circus with jazz and everything from waltz, swing, blues and gypsy in-between, The Bone Palace create another world of sound to enter. Their infectious, old-world grooves and head-high tackle-lyrics have drawn crowds and fans in larger and larger numbers, hooked on the music and the unpredictable nature of their stage show.

The Dream Until You Die CD comes in a presentation slipcase with a lavish full colour 23 page booklet which includes the complete lyrics.

"Fat Vaudevillian rock'n'roll - it will be interesting to see what another 10 years of hard living will do to Martin Martini's nascent freak-show grotesquerie of art, words and music. Often compared to Britain's Tigerlillies and Australia's Mikelangelo and the Black Sea Gentlemen, there are indeed common threads. Throw in a dash of Brecht and Weill, Talking Heads and dirty gypsy lift music, and you get a fair idea of what this junk circus is all about. Fresh from recording his new album, Martini corralled two choirs, one made up of kids, for the macabre Clowns Will Eat Me, and the other, a 45-strong drunk man's chorus (literally), for another called Poor John, about a cook who goes mad. Menacingly attractive, there is something of the wild-eyed malevolent pied-piper about Martini and his crew of misfits and ne'er-do-wells. Expect to be seduced and appalled in equal measure." Lily Bragge, The Age Arts Review 2006

"One gets the feeling if Martin Martini had his way every Bone Palace Orchestra gig would be played under a circus tent to an audience of sideshow freaks, carnies and itinerants." Dee Sharp
