Update #3: Caravan of Thieves Loves You
Greetings Fellow Freaks!!!
By now most if not all of you should have received
your rewards for your outstanding generosity in helping us to complete The
Funhouse CD. So we can not say THANK YOU enough! And in case you did
not know, The Funhouse will not officially be released till early 2012 on UFO
Records but we made sure to get you all your promised and well
deserved copies as well as have a few CDs available for our fall
tour.
We hope you are enjoying the music and whatever goodies
that recently arrived in your mailboxes. We also hope to see you out at one of
the shows on our Funtastical Fall Tour or some time in the near
future. And we invite you to take a
minute to view the new Funhouse Page we created where you can view the
Kickstarter Wall of Fame (your name in lights), recording session diaries and
most of all, share your thoughts and feelings on your new Funhouse CD!...
www.caravanofthieves.com/thefunhouse
And while on the subject of sharing thoughts on The
Funhouse, we'd like to invite you to join a little Twitter contest (if you dare
be a tweeter!). When you tweet about the album using #thefunhouse you'll be
entered to win a signed poster (different from the one you got through
Kickstarter)... And of course get to use your right to freedom of speech.

road so if you're not already on our email list and would like to get an
occasional email update on shows in your neighborhood, fun facts and news on the
Caravan of Thieves, please use this link to sign up for the Caravan Email List:

Update #2: It's time!!!
Hello all of you beloved Kickstarter Freaks!!
We have some very exciting news... it seems we're not the only ones excited about The Funhouse. UFO Records (NYC) has decided to partner up with us for it's release and they will be licensing the record to help put it out there to as many ears as we can! They will be releasing the record to the country in March of 2012 but...... you will be getting your copies NOW! We made a special deal so we can Pre-release the record to all of our Kickstarter backers and to our devoted Freaks who come out to support our fall tour.....we can not wait to get them in your hands....so we're not going to!
We have boxes of The Funhouse and we are putting together packages to send out at the end of this week. If you chose a digital download we are in the process of putting up a webpage where you can download the album and will send you details very soon..
Thank you so much for your generous support....we really could not have done this without you!!! WE LOVE YOU!
Update #1: WOW!

Gypsy Swinging Serenading Firebreathing Circus Freaks!
For the past three years, this Caravan of Thieves has roamed the North American continent recruiting a family of avid thrill seekers at their high energy shows. Driving gypsy jazz rhythms, acoustic guitars, upright bass and violin lay the foundation for mesmerizing vocal melodies, harmonies and fantastic stories. It’s theatrical and humorous. It’s musical and intense. It entertains, dazzles and defies classification while welcoming the spectator to join the band throughout the performance in a series of claps, snaps and sing-alongs. If Django Reinhardt, the cast of Stomp and the Beatles all had a party at Tim Burton’s house, Caravan of Thieves would be the band they hired.
