“A goth-cabaret folk vaudeville duo from Brooklyn in the dark cabaret mould of Tiger Lillies and Dresden Dolls.” –Outside Left
“Haunted vaudeville.” –Splice Magazine
CHARMING DISASTER, formed in 2012 by Brooklyn-based singer/songwriters Ellia Bisker and Jeff Morris, perform playfully dark original songs inspired by death, crime, myth, magic, science, and the occult. Channeling the macabre humor of Edward Gorey and Tim Burton, the murder ballads of the Americana tradition, and the dramatic flair of the cabaret, they explore dark subjects with a whimsically macabre sensibility. The duo’s comedic, theatrical performances are interactive experiences that are part concert, part fortune-telling ritual, and part vaudeville show. Their music has been featured on the podcast Welcome to Night Vale, they have toured extensively in the United States and Europe, and they have opened for legendary cello-rock ensemble Rasputina and goth icon Voltaire. They are touring New England from April 10-13 in support of their new single “Trick of the Light” (out now on all platforms).
“Charming Disaster are unusual, spooky, wickedly talented, and completely unafraid to delve deep into the underworld in exploration of all things lurking in the dark…they have a knack for making the macabre fun.” –Mixed Alternative
