Southern Comfort presents

The Polyphonic Spree: SoCo Carnivale

Fri 19 Feb 10

SUPPORTED BY THE NEW ORLEANS BINGO! SHOW

Confetti drenched; swaying in a French pirate jazz parade of white magic and Voodoo masquerade. Welcome to SoCo Carnivale: a non-stop celebration of all life has to offer.

SoCo Carnivale features the outrageous self-described ‘choral symphonic rock’ collective The Polyphonic Spree, who are set to sprinkle a little colour, hope and happiness on this year’s Carnivale season.
 
Also joining the parade is the genre defying outfit The New Orleans Bingo! Show direct from New Orleans Mardi Gras.
  
Southern Comfort presents this unique homage to its origin, New Orleans - a fancy dress party inspired by the spirit of New Orleans Carnivale.

“The Polyphonic Spree are nothing short of a phenomenon.The Vine

“The New Orleans Bingo! Show ….a theatrical street band: whiteface makeup, vintage suits, a ukulele, kazoos, fake tap dancing…. drawing a link between the old music and the mysterious-funhouse atmosphere that continues in New Orleans.” The New York Times
