(Direct Album Download or CD)

The Barnstormer Band experience includes banjo, kazoo, ukulele, guitars, upright bass, a traditional trap drum kit, clarinet and belt-it-out vocals. You will witness playful interplay between famous 1920’s characters (like Einstein & Al Capone), and their corresponding 1st class musicians. Experience the 1920’s prohibition vibe and dance craze era with this contemporary eclectic band. Their combined world class musicianship, studious and vivacious nature, and charming sweet spots happily take you back.

1/2 songs were recorded live from a show captured at the Blarney Stone, Vancouver, BC, and 1/2 of the songs were recorded during the Covid-19 lockdown where each band member recorded their part at home. This became of a great collection at Crosstown Studios, in East Vancouver, BC, Canada. It felt important to carry on as if it were live. We focused on being spontaneously crafty, and that comes through proudly in these recordings.
