Peculiar Prezelmen, how to describe you? They all certainly peculiar, no pun intended; take a sold foundation of folk and compose it for banjo and baritone saxophone + clarinet. Stir in a generous measure of gospel and a large slug of post-punk rock. Season heavily with some playfully dark cabaret and add a sprinkle of steampunk for taste. If that is too much music-snob wankery, just think of it as "steampunk cabaret as performed on a saxophone".
One of those serendipitous finds from Pandora. Not something I would have initially listened to (this is more the kind of music Significant Other likes), but still delightfully jaunty and fun to tap your feet and bob your head to.
