Mr. Lewis and the Funeral 5
Outline
Mr. Lewis and the Funeral 5 are a six-piece band led by singer/songwriter/guitarist Greg Lewis. The band produces music that is a memorable blend of Dresden Dolls' dark cabaret meets the circus from your nightmares meets gothic blues of Tom Waits meets a New Orleans style funeral procession in some combination, but without the doom and gloom. The band renders all this in the kind of macabre fun befitting a Denny Elfman/Tim Burton production. The band went through some personnel changes in '18 and had some of its rough edges smoothed out a bit, but their so-called "Macarabet" style is still prominent, though perhaps not quite in the throes of the Dark Cabaret of The Scarring Party.
Later years of Tom Waits, early years of Man Man, a playful Nick Cave
A funeral party held for a sad circus clown at a seedy bar.
