BIOGRAPHY
Punch Drunk Cabaret is a multi award-winning, festival favourite that combines an inventive blend of rockabilly, steampunk swing, and alt-rock resulting in a high energy live show of rousing, singalong choruses and dance floor packing rhythms that never fails to make the audience part of the show.
Featuring a rhythm section like no other, the trio is made up of stand-up drummer, Sean E. Watts, and bassist, Twotone Teddy Roy who doubles on both electric and upright bass. Fronted by Randl Lewis Bailer’s whisky-rasp vocals and howling Gretsch guitar, audiences are left feeling like they've witnessed Green Day, Stray Cats and Nick Cave on the same bill.
Punch Drunk Cabaret's set list features a distinctive sound that pays homage to the past while vibrantly blazing a modern trail. Their fresh take on classic sounds resonates with an incredibly wide range of music fans, as evidenced by their appearances at Roots, Blues, Rock, Folk and Jazz festivals as well as sharing stages with artists as diverse as Trooper, Sheepdogs, July Talk, Bif Naked and Reverend Horton Heat.
Most recently, the trio was selected from hundreds of acts to appear in the upcoming television series, "The Moment: Season 1", set for broadcast across Canada in 2021. This comes on the heels of being the first Alberta-bred act to ever win top honours at both the Edmonton AND Calgary Music Awards. In celebration of their most successful year to date, a limited edition, vinyl album, entitled: "LIVE Under the Darkest Sky" was released at the end of 2019. Tirelessly, the trio kicked off the summer of 2020 with the release of their fifth studio album, Vampire Anthems, proving once again that Punch Drunk Cabaret is a one-of-a-kind act on the rise.
