A few years ago, festgrrl went to a festival up near Atlanta called the Echo Fest, and late one night met and socialized with some delightful camping neighbors. They said: "You have to come see our band tomorrow at noon!"
When we arrived in the blazing sun to see said band, well.... there were over 30 people, stilt walkers and burlesque ladies and acrobats, oh my! The band is March Fourth from Portland, Oregon, and they were filming a documentary about their travels. Check out the March Fourth trailer for the documentary, Running Amok, below. Absolutely amazing.
They will be playing the Festival Internationale in Lafayette, Louisiana April 30, and I plan to travel there to see them ( and also the other fantastic acts, including world-beat phenoms Balkan Beatbox). The festival is free.
Check out these kooky cats!
And here's what they can do on stilts!
