What are you doing this Saturday? 🤔 We recommend you get yourself down to see Aurelio Voltaire, - singer/ performer, author, creator of comic books, films, animation, toys and home decor - right here!!
An internationally touring musician, he is at the forefront of the Gothic, Steampunk and Dark Cabaret genres headlining some of the biggest horror, sci-fi and comic book conventions as well as Gothic and Steampunk festivals for nearly two decades. His music can best be described as a collection of murder ballads, tongue-in-cheek exercises in the macabre, with just enough bawdy songs about Star Trek and Star Wars to keep a sci-fi convention audience rolling in the aisles. Many know him for his songs “Brains!” and “Land of the Dead” from the Cartoon Network show “The Grim Adventures of Billy And Mandy” and for the viral fan animated videos for his songs “The Night”, “Land of the Dead” , “Zombie Prostitute”, “Stuck with You”, Raised by Bats” and “Chupando” (viral hits from the animated videos of Daria Cohen’s Vampair series, with a combined 71 million views on Youtube).
Voltaire’s live shows, whether solo or with his skeletal orchestra, are full of stories and games. Many describe his shows as sitting around a fire while an old friend regales you with tales, presuming that old friend drinks a liter of rum a night, dates zombies and wrestles Krakens.
You won’t regret it!! 🔥
