Macabre Americana is a New York City-based folk-fusion collective that explores the dark undercurrents of the American dream — past and present.
Blending haunting melodies with poetic storytelling, our music delves into themes of identity, struggle, justice, and the often forgotten voices that shaped this country. Drawing inspiration from blues, folk, jazz, and soul, we craft songs that are both emotionally raw and theatrically rich.
From tales of coal town fires to protest anthems and spectral ballads, each track offers a window into America’s beautiful and brutal complexity.
