About Me |
|
| Curtis Eller is New York City's angriest yodelling banjo player. He sings about pigeon racing, performing elephants and Jesus, all of which he has seen with his own eyes. He started his show-business career at the age of seven as a juggler and acrobat in the Hiller Olde Tyme Circus in Detroit, but has since turned to the banjo because that's where the money is. His biggest musical influences are Buster Keaton, Elvis Presley and Abraham Lincoln. On the lastest American Circus CD Wirewalkers & Assassins This time Mr. Eller presents 10 songs about John Wilkes Booth, Joe Louis, Jack Ruby, Fidel Castro, Richard Nixon and the Hartford circus fire of 1944 (as well as the usual references to Elvis Presley and various Civil War generals). As always, sporadic yodeling and some strong language should be expected.
