Bluesfest: Dry River Caravan

From the indie dance rock of Fevers we go to the Balkan dance rock of Dry River Caravan. I just got a bit of their performance, but they were certainly pleasing the small crowd of early show-goers.

Matt Smith works the bouzouki, while Raphael Weinrothe-Brown (last seen with Musk Ox) mans the cello. Drummer Liam Smith sings a bit.

I feel like I've seen Weinrothe-Brown quite a bit in the past year; he was also drumming for Argus Panoptes.
