Sketched live @ EP Release 2012 by Natasha Vermeulen
NIKITA THE SPOOKY AND A CIRCUS OF MEN
Is made up of Nikita Tu-Bryant vocalist/guitarist/poet leading the journey, along-side her are the Spooky and a Circus of Men:
Daniel Yeabsley (The Yoots, Ukelele Orchestra, The Troubles) – double bass
Cory Champion (The Digg) – percussive sounds and vocal harmonies
Tristan Carter (Firefly Collab, The Troubles, Padang Moncar) – violin/viola and vocal harmonies
Charley Davenport (Firefly Collab, The Troubles, Grayson Gilmour) – cello
Spooky’s music is described as mystical and mesmerising, many tales sung through melodies and pulses – a natural accompaniment of storytelling through music. The roots are primarily folk, branching out to the likes of blues, jazz and soul.
Folk with a slight quirky twist.
After their successful “Live at Happy” CD Release Tour in the North and South Island – Nikita the Spooky and a Circus of Men will be releasing their first studio album end of June 2013.
