An underground, homegrown folk punk artist.
Calico Oli is a dark folk, blues and gypsy musician originally from Montreal, Canada. He has been on the road for over 10 years straight and has played music on every continent. His first steps as a musician were through the noisy and dark scene of brutal music. Then the streets taught him the depth and beauty of the blues, purity of folk and frenziness of gypsy music. So when Calico Oli’s band makes it in time to his gigs to put some meat around the bone the projet’s name becomes Calico’s Caravan. The Caravan is always on the move and it is everchanging.
