Dave Carr's Fabulous Contraption

At times moody and introspective, at others unveiling a heaviness not usually encountered in acoustic music, the Fabulous Contraption explore the forces of good and evil in the world of instrumental folk music.

They combine a wide array of influences, including Contemporary and traditional folk styles from across Europe, bluegrass and rock. Like drifting calmly down a river only to find yourself in the midst of a crocodile infestation, the music moves between extremes: from trancelike calm to dancing-on-the-tables lunacy.
