CARRIE NATION & THE SPEAKEASY (CNS) is a high-energy sextet from Wichita, KS, USA. The band has been described as “…astagecoach in overdrive” and “dark, psychedelic speedfolk”. Psychedelic soundscapes are punctuated by downright amphetaminic tempos and controlled cacophony.
File under: Dark psychedelic speedfolk/ thrashgrass/ experimental acoustic/ folkpunk for people who hate folkpunk.

Taking the stage like Bela Lugosi on a mechanical bull, Royal Son of a Guns belt out rip snorting acid western voodoobilly with heavy doses of surrealism. These bar stool smashing miscreants take Americana on a psycho-cathartic hayride through the thorny nettles of the American roots music underbelly with primitive guitars, electrified washboard and a bedrock of bass that will rattle your teeth.
