The Village Voice calls Pinataland "Brooklyn’s finest dark-old-world-weird-history orchestrette."
They will be at the Old Stone House this Saturday August 16th from 7pm-8:30pm
The Old Stone House is in JJ Byrne Park in Park Slope Brooklyn. That’s on Fifth Avenue between
3rd and 4th Streets). The event is FREE.

In these troubled times, do we need a band that puts the chaos of
history in perspective, one that finds the silver lining in the dark
stories of the past? Perhaps, but Pinataland is not that band,
choosing instead to plunge the listener into a strange, bygone world
of failed utopias, crackpot dreamers and bizarre obsessions.

This Saturday August 16th the band will be celebrating the release of
their second collection of songs about obscure historical events,
"Songs for the Forgotten Future Vol. 2", featuring tunes about drunken
cliff jumpers, failed artists that created 3-mile long paintings of
the Mississippi, murderous Mormons, 19th century robot-building
spiritualists, and pre 1609 Manhattan. Conjuring all this to life will
be musicians playing tuba, pedal steel guitar, accordion, piano, drums
and lots of pretty harmonizing vocals.

They’ll also be performing some choice covers like John Quincy Adam’s
campaign song from 1827 ("Satan’s coming / if John Quincy not be
coming!") all against the backdrop of the lovely and historic Old
Stone House, a renovated Revoluitionary-era building.

So please join us as the sun goes down on Brooklyn and history
struggles to life through music. This event is both all-ages and free
to all.
