Be transported to a bygone era when witches and black magic were rife. Their songs tell stories of deals with the devil, demons in love, witchdoctors, zombies, ghosts, ghouls, journeys to the deepest jungles and other exotic adventures which are told using sweet melodies and syncopated sounds.
Jo Carley: Lead Vocals / Washboard / Mandolin / Percussion
Tim Carley: Battered Archtop Guitar / Kick / Rattlin’ Shoe / Backing Vocals
James Le Huray: Beat-up Double Bass / Backing Vocals
The music takes influence from early vaudeville, blues, calypso acts such as Victoria Spivey, Cab Calloway and Wilmoth Houdini and adds inspiration from Old Time Country, Bluegrass and Rockabilly from the likes of Bill Monroe all the way to Wanda Jackson, but adding a creepy and theatrical twist that echoes Screamin’ Jay Hawkins.
Jo Carley And the Old Dry Skulls is made up of husband and wife duo Jo Carley and Tim Carley along with their bass player James LeHuray.
