This week's show glitters with denial, swagger, heartbreak, and high drama as Emmett Davenport and Lady Attercop guide you through con games, big feelings, and bigger personalities. It's a jewel-toned parade of confidence, contradiction, and just enough self-awareness to make it dangerous.

This week's show takes a crooked walk through memory, misbehavior, and the lie of the "good old days" as Emmett Davenport and Lady Attercop guide you from nursery rhymes to nervous breakdowns. It's music for refusing to grow up gracefully and questioning nostalgia.

WARNING! This show is for adults. We drink cocktails, have potty mouths and, at least, one of us was raised by wolves.

The Clockwork Cabaret is a production of Agony Aunt Studios. Featuring that darling DJ Duo, Lady Attercop and Emmett Davenport. Our theme music is made especially for us by Kyle O'Door.

This week, Emmett Davenport and Lady Attercop wander the low road, tracing loneliness, bad decisions, and the thin line between comfort and ruin through songs about medicine, devils, cowboys, and charming men. From old-fashioned remedies and darker histories to swagger, sorrow, and strange humor, the Cabaret leans into music that aches, struts, and refuses easy answers. It's a beautiful night for questionable cures and excellent company.

Emmett Davenport and Lady Attercop unwrap the darker side of the season with a dive into Krampusnacht, where holiday cheer comes with horns, chains, and consequences.
