For the past three years, this Connecticut CARAVAN OF THIEVES has roamed the North American continent recruiting a family of avid thrill seekers at their high-energy shows. Driving gypsy jazz rhythms, acoustic guitars, upright bass and violin lay the foundation for mesmerizing vocal harmonies and fantastic stories. In the spring of 2008, vocal harmonizing, acoustic guitar-spanking husband and wife songwriting duo Fuzz and Carrie Sangiovanni extended their family to include fiery violinist Ben Dean and double bass madman, Brian Anderson completing their colorful vision. Within that first year, CoT won immediate praise for their unique blend of gypsy swing and popular music, inspiring them to record and release their debut full-length album Bouquet (2009). Their interactive stage set of percussive junk in tow, the ragtag quartet took their newly animated show on the road, sharing stages with world renowned artists such as Decembrists, Ricky Skaggs, Tom Tom Club, Iron and Wine, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Tony Trischka, John Hammond, WPA and many others.
Set for release later this year, CoT's third full-length album project is sure to break new ground for the band while continuing to satisfy the core family of “Freaks” they have been cultivating for the past three years. "If Django Reinhardt, the cast of Stomp and the Beatles all had a party at Tim Burton’s house, Caravan of Thieves would be the band they hired."
