This East London collective of shadowy ne’er do wells, led by Norwegian born Paul-Ronney Angel, have been touring their unique brand of Bourbon Soaked Gypsy Blues Bop’N’Stroll extensively since 2003. Raising the roof at headline shows across UK, Ireland, USA, Europe & Scandinavia, they also regularly grace festival stages such as Glastonbury, Latitude, Bestival, Electric Picnic, Edinburgh Festival. With their lurching sea shanties, debauched murder ballads, messed-up tangos and whiskey-soaked gypsy stomps, some reckon they’re from the same stable of stallions as Tom Waits and Nick Cave; others point out the last gang in town swagger of The Clash and the hellbound blues that John Lee Hooker first dragged out of the swamp. 2008 saw them receive a personal invitation from The Pogues to open for them in the USA leading to them also opening for the whole of the UK/Ireland X-Mas 2008 tour – anyone who witnessed that tour can testify what a roaring success it was!Featuring between 7 to 12 musicians playing guitars, drums, fiddle, trumpet, banjo, washboard, upright bass, gong, mandolin, accordion, harmonicas, saxophone and even empty bottles & tie racks to build their unique brand of Bourbon Soaked Gypsy Blues Bop’n’Stroll… SIX YEARS IN THE MAKING, BUT WELL WORTH THE WAIT!Debut Long Player’BOURBON SOAKED GYPSY BLUES BOP ‘N’ STROLL’Is now available on Gypsy Hotel RecordsClick any of the links below to purchase yours! http://play.com/ hmv.com www.amazon.co.uk One of the best-realised debut albums in recent years!- CLASSIC ROCK *9/10 a hellacious swing that causes dames to sway and dudes to drink!- BIG CHEESE *5/5 ‘The UVM rise above the mere cabaret, by simply being very, very good’- Q MAGAZINE *3/5 Once a month, The Urban Voodoo Machine host the legendary London club night, ‘Gypsy Hotel’.
