Dust City Opera at the Homestead

Intimate setting in the Homestead Theater for a folk-rock orchestra experience. This unexpected alt-rock orchestra materialized out of Albuquerque, but they might as well have slipped through an intergalactic portal or stowed away on a derelict spacecraft before crash landing in the desert.

Dust City Opera tells harrowing tales of sadness, madness, and mayhem. With each performance illuminating the space between death and humor, this quintet becomes the soundtrack to stories steeped in cosmic horror and transformation.

In many ways, it fulfills frontman and sonic ringmaster Paul Hunton's destiny. Under the influence of everything from H.P. Lovecraft and Stephen King to Tom Waits and Soundgarden, he founded Dust City Opera at the top of 2018.
