ABOUT US
We started out making weird rock music a la Frank Zappa, Mr. Bungle and Primus in the clubs of Austin, TX in 2003 but our mix of rock and classical instruments lent itself to bigger projects and we quickly branched into the arts world with our live silent film soundtracks and our legendary holiday shows.
We post works-in-progress on our PATREON PAGE at least once a week including new singles, scenes from our silent film scores and a new HIDDEN CZARCHIVE of unreleased material, works in progress and in the fall of 2020.
You can visit The Throne Room of the Czars for a journey through our history with videos, music, written stories, photos and more through the magic of email.
WHAT WE DO
SILENT FILM
We've created tastefully modern soundtracks for 10 silent films and performed live with the movies all over the US and Canada at arthouse cinemas, film festivals, parks, colleges, etc. We began doing this in 2006 at the original Alamo Drafthouse. We create custom artwork, incorporate audience participation into our shows and are known for our ability to complement the emotion on screen. This has been our main focus since 2015. We post silent film works in progress on our Patreon page every Tuesday.
ECLECTIC ROCK
Think Faith No More meets Brave Combo. We incorporate a lot of styles into our left-of-the-dial rock music. We've also applied our all-over-the-place style to several covers songs and even classical music like 1812 Overture and A Night on Bald Mountain. In 2020 we're launching a new singles series and collecting all of our music in the new Czarchive. We kicked it off with our ZZany version of ZZ Top's "La Grange".
HOLIDAYS
Our whimsical re-imagining of The Nutcracker Suite became a holiday tradition when we debuted it in 2004. Since then we've added more and more wacky versions of holiday numbers to the show and played nearly every holiday event of note in San Antonio, Houston, DFW and Austin. In recent years we've become the band at Panoramic Voices annual Rockin' Holiday Extravaganza in Austin.
SHIRTS
$25.00
Our most popular artwork on a good ol' black t-shirt with the pre-2019 designation of "men's" cut.
$25.00
The Count is always with you. No matter what. But if you wear this shirt, he's with you to an even greater degree.
Yeah. We're leaving that as the description.
$25.00
What does "women's" even mean anymore? If you're curvy and like a cropped sleeve, this is the shirt for you. Two-sided design. Just know that these run smaller than the cut once known as "men's."
$25.00
This shirt is red. If you like red, and you like curvy shirts, this is the one. We only have a few left. Get it.
$25.00
This is a red shirt with our Jekyll & Hyde art on it. If you buy it, you can wear it whenever you want and other lifeforms will see it. Do it.
$25.00
We have a pretty cool logo and we put it on a purple shirt. Birds love it because it has a bird on it. Just kidding. They have no clue - it's actually cats that love it!
(Note: this bird's name is Chad -- short for CHADuronga Dandasana. He has metal band called Vylycyryptyr. They jam, dude.)
$25.00
Our logo on a purple shirt across your chest --- the best advertising anyone could ask for. Thank you!
