  Lunar Carnival is a magical blend of Soulful harmonies. This is the sound
of a variety of instruments dancing within clever composition. It all adds
up to an amazing sonic experience of music for the heart!

At the core is singer/songwriter/guitarist Katerina Korolov and
bassist/vocalist Daniel Grip. They've played oceans of music together,
under many moons. Katerina's heartfelt songs are the nucleus of the sound,
with lyrics that can evoke an inspiring feeling in people from all walks of
life. Daniel adds a solid foundation of musical accompaniment with upright
bass and vocal harmonies.  On top of that is a whirlwind of instruments
played by talented musicians who each bring unique skills and stylings to
band.

Some of the other key performers you're likely to see at a Carnival show
are: Johanna Dun-Jones (cajon/percussion, vocals), Steve Yarbro (clarinet,
saxophone, vocals), Brian Bender (trombone, melodica), and Alex Korolov
(violin). This list is by no means all-inclusive as the band regularly
shares the stage with a variety of talent. When the Carnival rolls into
town, you may find some local musicians sitting-in on instruments ranging
from strings to brass.

All of this comes together to form an energizing and inspiring Bohemian
sound. The bands many influences include the Gypsy Life, the Middle Ages,
Classical, Southern Soul, Roots Rock and Soul Ska. Ultimately, Lunar
Carnival is a unique Gypsy Americana band.

The group just finished a new recording "Once Upon A River..." which truly
transcends the genres. It's an eclectic blend of songs utilizing a wide
array of instrumentation and arrangement. It's catchy enough to be
accessible, with enough depth to listen to again and again. The album
consists of many of Katerina's finest songs written in recent years,
decorated with dazzling musical performances, and sealed with some
thoughtful production. The band is very proud of this work and hopes to
share it and bring enjoyment to a wide audience.

Live, the band is at home in a listening room, festival stage, cafe, bar,
party, campfire, dining establishment, your living room..., etc.  The music
is versatile enough to reach all audiences and the performance is capable
of keeping a crowd spellbound for the whole night.  Their flexibility in
instrumentation, combined with an emphasis on improvisation, ensures that
the live show will bring fresh versions of the songs to light.

The band is currently centered in Western Massachusetts, after previous
residencies in Ithaca, NY and Floyd, VA.  They've toured and played many
live shows since forming in 2011, and left audiences riveted from New
Orleans, LA to Burlington, VT.  They’re experienced musicians who have
developed a charming chemistry that shines bright from the stage.

Come one, come all!  Experience Lunar Carnival's interesting, appealing,
original sound.  This is music from the heart, for those who want to feel.
