Consuelo’s Revenge is a ragtag crew of musical storytellers from Providence, Rhode Island, known for turning every show into a foot-stomping folktale. With fiddle, sax, accordion and guitars in hand, they brew up a sound that’s as worldly as it is wild – blending folk, blues, klezmer, rowdy bluegrass and soulful Americana into one irresistible musical concoction.
Formed in the early 2010s, Consuelo’s Revenge cut their teeth playing dive bars for small crowds, but their infectious energy and storytelling swagger quickly earned them a reputation as one of Providence’s best live acts. Their self-titled 2013 debut and rollicking 2015 follow-up, Mercy, showcased the group’s fearless genre-blending and folklore-laced songwriting, earning them multiple honors at the Motif Music Awards.
The band released their third full-length studio album - "Bread & Circuses" - in October 2025.
Guided by a bold artistic vision, the band has cultivated a devoted community of fans and carved out a unique spot in their music scene, all while keeping their artistic journey as playful and unpredictable as a midnight carnival ride.
