For one night, across seven rooms and 8 bewitching hours the Court of Rumpus revels! The Scribes and Annie O have faced highwaymen and high seas to make their way to the Main Room. The Travelling Tavern returns bursting with bands and bards from around the world, with sultry blues & luscious jazz that swings through time.
Djs deliver drop-dead divine beats, acrobats perform fantastic feats and feints of Circus as roving artists roam.

Expect all this and oh-so-much more – for you are in favour of the tip-top, non-stop carousing, cavorting Court of Rumpus!

★★Room 4 – The Travelling Tavern★★

http://rumpusparty.co.uk/video/the-travelling-tavern/

Every royal court needs an underground tavern to titillate its people and on that most marvellous note we now decree with much felt glee – The Travelling Tavern is back! Prepare for the usual medley of the most incredible musicians… who happen to play pretty good too.

And for all those who have been missing the marvel that is the Kazoo Orchestra, could this be your night? Does the most affronting of horns draw near? Why have the Kazoos been silenced of late?

✩Balothizer✩ A supergroup of London’s Greek musical heroes featuring members of The Turbans, Electric Litany and Valia Calda playing traditional Cretan tunes with beatnik attitude and bebop virtuosity.

✩Sling✩ Arthouse space blues for dancing with your mind, trippy explorative jive hop for your itchy feet.

Of course no Tavern could be complete without the high art of the Rumpus pArty Collective
