Two Hudson Valley Dark Cabaret bands, Frenchy and the Punk and Dust Bowl Faeries<\/a>, will be bringing their blissful and maniacal music to Colony Woodstock<\/a> on Thursday, March 30th. Dancing and magical happenings will kick off at 8pm that evening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Frenchy<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What is Dark Cabaret? This unique genre draws on the aesthetics of burlesque, vaudeville and Weimar-era cabaret, with live performances that borrow from the stylings of goth and punk. Frenchy and the Punk are an unorthodox, evocative electro-acoustic Dark Cabaret\/post-punk duo based in the Hudson Valley<\/a>. With exotic melodies and European-inflected percussive textures, they invoke a dark carnival of two that they take on the road across the US, UK and in Europe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

French-born singer Samantha Stephenson sings with a gothy heft and authority that may remind one generation of Siouxsie Sioux and another of Grace Slick. Guitarist, live looper, and former punk bass player, Scott Helland weaves dark riffs and layers of spidery melody in an acoustic\/electric tone that is entirely his own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
