“Douglas Von Irvin is mysterious character. Not much is known about him other than the fact that he is lead singer and mouthpiece for the theatrical garage rock band Douglas Von Irvin’s Carnival. The band’s guitarist and “spiritual advisor”, Dr. “Dave” Prycenstein, is even more of an enigma. The two reportedly met on a dimly lit stage in Las Vegas, joined by founding KISS member and frontman Paul Stanley, while the Dr was on sabbatical from one of his executive globetrotting excursions working for an unnamed international pharmaceutical company. ” Writes this mysterious band’s official website.
Douglas Von Irvin’s Carnival is a unique project with a fun hook in each song- it’s hard not to want to dance and participate in the extravaganza! Described as “Monster Garage Pop” by Von Irvin himself, the music can appeal to a wide array of audiences with it’s fun themes and catchy tunes. Producer Matt Starr (Ace Frehley, Mr Big) was contacted upon the project’s formation, and the trio quickly entered the recording studio in Los Angeles. Additional musicians on the recordings included Starr on drums and Walter Ino (Eagles of Death Metal). The songs were mixed by Smiley Sean (Motley Crue, A Perfect Circle).
The band played a wonderful set at the Viper Room, whose home is right on the world famous Sunset Strip in West Hollywood. Getting the crowd riled up for the venue’s jam night, DVIC (for short) was able to introduce their sounds to Los Angeles.
