If Tom Waits and Siouxsie Sioux had a child, it would be Ryder Cooley of the Dustbowl Faeries. Dust Bowl Faeries is a dark-carnival band from New York. Their eclectic repertoire of songs draws inspiration from circus, post-punk and Eastern European folk music. Accordion, singing saw, ukulele, lap-steel, guitar and percussion combine to create the Dust Bowl Faeries other-worldly sound. The band was founded by inter-disciplinary artist Ryder Cooley and Hazel, a disembodied taxidermy ram who performs with the Fairies as their mascot-spirit animal. Ryder and Hazel are joined by Rubi LaRue, Jon B. Woodin, Liz LoGiudice & Andrew Stein.
