Are you a violin, fiddle, viola player who perhaps likes a walk on the wrong side of the tracks musically? Do you often feel the urge to dress up? as say a Victorian scoundrel , ragamuffin, undertaker, steampunker you know, look the part and dress for the performance and the image of the band (as long as you are comfortable). Are you also per chance someone that maybe can sing some backing vocals or at least shout along during the chorus? Do you enjoy contributing to song writing, arranging and development? Do you like gigging across the UK on weekends and making the odd bit of money but play for the love & passion of playing?
Then my friend... The Filthy Spectacula wants you!
We are an established Gypsy punk,Pirate punk, Celtic punk, Dark cabaret, Steampunk, bit of Goth thrown in type musical experience - unique in fact in our sound. We are a band based in London. Comprising of singer, guitar, drums. accordion & bass. (& current fiddler until September)
We have been gigging regularly for 3 and a half years but now find ourselves looking to change our eccentric fiddle player for another one- you aint got to play the same way as him and we are good with you adding your stamp on our music.
We have an EP, an album and 3 videos under our belts to date (plus a load of live video clips) and have plans to do more of the same at end of this year/begining of next- Gigs are always in the pipeline(few bookings for 2019 already) and we are a much sort after festival band on the circuit

If you are intrigued by what you see and hear and would like more information, please get back to us pronto. - any age /sex /race whatever- just play good, we are an easy going bunch,serious about what we do but of course love the fun and experience of being in an off kilter band - 2nd album due to be recorded this year (and this is our 1st priority) and gigs lined up- So if this is you or you want to give it a go, come join us..........if you dare
