Jo Carley e The Old Dry Skulls sono un trio proveniente dall'Inghilterra che combinano il blues e i ritmi voodoo ska del 1930 con la vecchia scena "Vaudeville"cabaret.
Il loro è un vero spettacolo che ti trasporterà in un mondo "underground" dove il macabro e l'immaginazione si fondono con gli elementi del Vaudeville, Skiffle, film horror immaginario, Early ska, Calypso, Country, Rock n Roll e il blues ✨🕺💃 🎶
La forza motrice è il set-up one-man-band di Tim con il Kick-tamburo, hi-hat e chitarra; si contrappongono le dolci melodie di Jo con i suoi passaggi dal violino al mandolino e al washboard.
A completare la line up James Le Huray al contrabbasso e banjo.

Biography
Jo Carley and The Old Dry Skulls combine Blues, Skiffle, Calypso and Rockabilly with a creepy vaudeville twist. It’s music that makes people wanna shake their bones!
This trio are known for their unique live show, transporting the audience to a bygone era when witches and black magic were rife. Their songs tell stories of deals with the devil, demons in love, witchdoctors, zombies, ghosts, ghouls, journeys to the deepest jungles and other exotic adventures which are told using sweet melodies and syncopated sounds.
The music takes influence from early vaudeville blues acts such as Victoria Spivey via Cab Calloway, Wilmoth Houdini and Wanda Jackson, but adding a creepy and theatrical twist that echoes Dr John and Screamin Jay Hawkins.
Voodoo has found it’s way onto British shores and Jo Carley is the wild and dark demonic music-hall mistress sent to predict hell in a way to entertain and amaze you, telling tales of terror in old-timey fashion. Backed by her song-writing partner and husband the Zombie-like Tim Carley, who churns out blues-tinged rhythms on an old archtop guitar, kick drum and rattlin’ shoe, with fellow fiend James Le Huray providing the final ingredients of the spell, in the shape of double bass and banjo.
‘I’ll Put My Voodoo On You’ is the bands fourth album and was recorded in their Voodoo Shack, down by the beach on the East Coast of England during the darkest days and longest nights of early 2022. These recordings were mixed and mastered to ¼ tape with Ed Deegan at Gizzard Recordings in London in the spring and summer of 2022. Their analogue and primitive way of recording totally captures the bands unique sound.
