Editorial Reviews

Only a city as biz-oriented as Los Angeles, could hatch a musical theater ensemble like My Barbarian. Staking claims in theatrical and musical territory through shows that feature lyrical fiction, choreography, and improv comedy, the group monopolize the act of performance in nearly every possible way. Their off-Broadway, harmonized choruses and keyboard-driven arrangements jump genres in time with the fascinated subjects of their songs. They even use costumes and dancing as visual aids. With this innovation in entertainment, which they call "showcore," the five members come off like arty Fame outcasts, liberating musical shtick from its usual lameness and turning cheesy dramatics into goofy, glitzy charm. ///// Track Listing: 1.

I fell in love with these guys the first time I happened upon the video for Unicorns L.A. If you haven't seen it do yourself a favor and google Unicorns L.A. and watch it, then contact the band and buy this CD directly from them. Oh, and if you ever have the chance to see them live, don't you dare miss it.
