Babe-alon 5
Comprised of the superbly talented Kasey Foster, Kiley B. Moore, Tara Smith, and Pianu Reeves (Matt Gunsaulus) on keys - a Babe-alon 5 show is equal parts hilarious, aurally pleasurable, punny, confusing, nostalgic, awe-inspiring, and awkwardly raunchy. You may have caught members of this cheeky foursome in other musical formations such as This Must Be the Band, DjNoDj, Grood, Big Syn, Wild Earp and the Free for Alls, and Old Timey... to name but a few - but consider that oeuvre hopelessly incomplete until Babe-alon has tickled all 5 of your senses with their Sweet Sweet Siren Songs… and probably their Smelly Feet!
Formed in 2014. Website here. Facebook page is here.
