Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players US tour & DVD Release

If you’re thinking,”Trachtenwha…?” The Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players have been self-defined as “an indie-vaudeville-conceptual-art-rock-slidshow band.” The band is comprised of three family members: Jason, his wife and his 12-year-old daughter Rachel. Jason sings quirky indie rock songs that have been meticulously crafted to jive with slides collected from estate sales, garage sales, and thrift stores that transform the lives of complete strangers into unique rock opuses.

"When i first saw the band, i said, well, what a cool concept. I wanted the life of either the kid or the dad. Either one. Either one is fine with me. All they need to do is start making their own honey, and that's it, they're done." --David Cross
