Curtis Eller is a banjo player, songwriter, dancer, and storyteller. The lifelong show business veteran began performing at the age of seven as a juggler and acrobat, but has since turned to the banjo because that’s where the money is. His band, Curtis Eller’s American Circus, has developed a devoted international following based on spellbinding stage performances that combine a dreamlike view of American history with silent film style, physical comedy, and explosive rock & roll energy. The iconoclastic troubadour has spent twenty years relentlessly touring the clubs, theaters and festivals of North America and Europe. Eller’s legendary solo shows once earned him the title of “New York’s angriest yodeling banjo player”. This coming April, Eller will be returning to the Midwest and Northeast for a limited run of intimate, acoustic performances in support of his new album, ‘Another Nice Mess’.
