The Keith Allen Circus is exactly what it sounds like. A high flying, death defying, trapeze

act of sound led by multi-instrumentalist, vocalist and ringmaster, Keith Allen, with Kevin

Purcell (Drums/Keyboards), Brian Tyndall (Bass), and Bradley Turner (Guitar)

The original music blends styles of dark rock and jam (Pink Floyd & Widespread Panic), and

catchy psychedelic electro-pop (Gorillaz & Tame Impala) with Keith's own unique

compositional and improvisational style, developed from 20 years playing with The Mantras.
