BIO:
Abney Park comes from an era that never was, but one that we wish had been. An era where airships waged war in the skies, and corsets and cummerbunds were proper adventuring attire. They’ve picked up their bad musical habits, scoundrelous musicians, and anachronistically hybridized instruments from dozens of locations and eras that they have visited in their travels and thrown them into one riotous dervish of a performance. Expect clockwork guitars, belly dancers, flintlock bassists, middleastern percussion, violent violin, and Tesla powered keyboards blazing in a post- apocalyptic, swashbuckling, Steampunk musical mayhem.

The weirdest, creepiest, eeriest, most bizarre, peculiar peepshow you've seen yet!!
So, ever since I saw you at Pyrate Daze, I've been listening to your music almost non-stop. I just love it! The unique lyrics, the passion, the blend of musical styles, the way Sleep Isabella is a kick-ass belly dance song. I can't wait to see you in concert again, this time knowing all the songs!! Hope you will be coming to SoCal, soon, and I'd dearly love to dance with you!
If you are in the Austin Texas area and a fan of Abney Park and a fan of steampunk you need to know we are working on a steampunk short film and our music video and we would love to hear from you. We start filming OCT 24th and we are throwing a huge party that night... come dressed to the nines to get in.
Hey there! We just finished new songs with the producer of Incubus, Jack's Mannequin, and Hoobastank. Let us know what you think about "Restless" and "Dark Day Afternoon" when you get a sec. :-) Thanks for being our friend!
