It seems just about everyone in the steampunk community has heard of the group Abney Park but just in case you haven't we will tell you a bit about them. Abney Park is a band out of Seattle, WA which draws it's influences from steampunk, industrial music, and traditional folk music. This group was first organized in 1997 and came out with their first self titled album in 1998. The band is well known for their performances at various steampunk conventions. As you can see from their band photo they lean a bit towards the theatrical side with steampunk clothing and even instruments which the band has customized themselves to have a bit of a steampunk flare. Their music will draw any steampunk fan in with their mesmerizing sound and lyrics. If you have never heard Abney Park I recomend you look them up on youtube ASAP and watch some of their performances. I guarantee once you listen to their performance of "Sleep Isabella" you will be hooked for life.
