Curtis Eller's American Circus

Curtis Eller is a banjo player and rock'n'roll singer specializing in gospel music for atheists and dance fads for amputees. A prolific and accomplished songwriter, Eller has earned a devoted, international following based on his dynamic, often unhinged, performances.

His banjo driven compositions describe a dreamlike vision of American history where all points in time have collapsed into one. Abe Lincoln, Buster Keaton and Joe Louis rub shoulders against a backdrop of circus disasters and sweatshop fires.
