The Dicksville Conspiracy Unit (aka The Brick Briscoe Trio)

Biography
Primarily an extension of filmmaker/composer Brick Briscoe's music persona, the Dicksville Conspiracy Unit is a trio comprised of Briscoe, a preacher's husband and the anti-christ. The odd combination of personalities keeps them honest and produces a healthy artistic discourse. The Dicksville Conspiracy Unit plays many free shows for their brothers in the local prison, as well as hosting free rave evenings at their own chalet the Pillbox. It may be loud, it may be quiet...it just depends on how they feel that night. File under Jazz/Punk/Free Love.
