Cicada Ryhthm
Andrea DeMarcus- Bass
David Kirslis – Guitar
Born and raised in Georgia, this talented pair imitates and modernizes folk music to a rejuvenating degree. Their sound exhibits skilled and articulate guitar picking honed in the dive bars of Atlanta over rolling Julliard-trained bass lines. Expect chilling harmonies, unbridled enthusiasm, some wholesome tunes and a sincere performance.

Twenty four
and all that
I know is—
Between Insanity
and all Beauty
some hard line
moves in silence.
The dark word—
my only prayer,
my very love.
The Imperial OPA Circus builds upon successes of uncommon people doing extraordinary things. Its foundation are the Men and Women, performers and friends, who make it such a fantastic business and experience. The body stacking and human pyramid building represents almost a direct metaphor for the circus itself – shaky at first, but when it comes together, it is a work of art.
