Fasten your seatbelt when Caravan of Thieves takes the stage! Critics declare "The group's gypsy folk-jazz sound oozes with energy," "twice the energy and intensity of any rock and roll band." This foursome gets the crowd cheering, laughing, ooo'ing and ahh'ing with a forceful, kinetic blend of unison stomping and snapping, lightning fast guitar and violin, mesmerizing vocal harmonies, crashing percussion and winkingly ascerbic lyrics. Fronted by husband and wife Fuzz and Carrie Sangiovani, the band started with " a romantic, bohemian vision of a couple making music, performing on the road, in parks, traveling around and avoiding responsibility as much as possible." In 2008 they teamed with Ben Dean on violin and Brian Anderson on double bass and started sharing the stage with some folks you might have heard of: Emmylou Harris, Punch Brothers, the Decemberists, and Iron and Wine. With four albums to their name, hundreds of thousands of YouTube views, and seven years of non-stop touring, they roll into Saratoga tonight with a new album, "Kiss Kiss," which oozes with dark humor and sarcastic social commentary, but somehow ends up being a testament to love, and all the beauty and danger it brings.
