Members: Wendell - Sounds / Bek - Beats

With a name reflective of its sound, The Carnival performs a unique blend of music and storytelling, propelling the audience into a strange world of fairytales, nightmares and romantic cabaret.

Fronted by Wendell, an accomplished singer, songwriter and classical pianist, along with drummer Bekki, the dynamic duo have conjured up an act reaching beyond the scope of conventional rock bands, with their quirky mix of enchanting music and dramatic lyrics.

Having met in Paris in 2005, the unlikely union of two very different talents somehow complimented each other perfectly; the puzzle pieces finally falling into place a year later with the band's
formation.

Despite having formed so recently, The Carnival have already produced a wildly diverse and theatrical set. During their first week of live performance, the band won the Lichfield Livewire Battle of the Bands competition, resulting in a slot in the Fuse Tent at The Beacon Park Festival on 14th July 2007.

After being launched into local success, The Carnival went on to record their first EP "Kill Off The Show" which was released in the UK at a special Halloween show 31/10/07, and released on iTunes Worldwide January 02/12/07!

They are currently writing new material...
