Live Performance by Curtis Eller "Live Performance by Curtis Eller"
New York City's angriest yodelling banjo player, Curtis Eller sings about pigeon racing, performing elephants and Jesus, all of which he has seen with his own eyes. He started his show-business career at the age of seven as a juggler and acrobat in the Hiller Olde Tyme Circus in Detroit, but has since turned to the banjo because that's where the money is. His biggest musical influences are Buster Keaton, Elvis Presley and Abraham Lincoln. Mr. Eller and his band, The American Circus, have staggered their way into the hearts of audiences from funerals, horse races, burlesque revues and punk rock dumps. Curtis Eller appeared, sans band, with bassist Evan Silverman on some numbers to cheer the WFMU audience with tunes about John Wilkes Booth, Joe Louis, Fidel Castro, Jack Ruby and Richard Nixon (as well as the usual tales of Civil War generals and Elvis Presley).

Live performance by Benjamin Wetherill
Benjamin Wetherill, who calls himself the"Cliff Richard of Folk," brings us beautiful folk tales from the other side of the pond. On his debut album, Laura, echoes of old-world charm are liberally sprinkled throughout the tunes, which were recorded in a castle in Budapest. With a gentle nod to the music of Nick Drake and John Fahey, Benjamin Wetherill visited from the UK to play live on WFMU.
