Biography

Guignol is a Brooklyn-based quartet that performs original tunes in the balkan/klezmer/folk tradition. The group consists of Franz Nicolay on accordion, Peter Hess on clarinet, John Bollinger on drums, and George Rush on tuba. They have two releases: a full length self-titled CD and a split EP (entitled Drink the Best Wine First) with the band Nanuchka.

Different group: Guignol was a one-off project comprised of members of Volcano The Bear (Laurence Coleman, Aaron Moore, Nick Mott on 2 tracks) and Jeremy Barnes (Neutral Milk Hotel, Bablicon, A Hawk and a Hacksaw). Their sole release, “Angela, David, and the Great Neopolitan Road Issue” was issued by Cenotaph Audio in 2004. The record also features a rare appearance by “Korena Pang” AKA Jeff Mangum.
