Music & Projects
Immerse thyself in the anachronistic soul of Balladir
Balladir Music
Travis Puntarelli is the heart of Balladir, a chamber punk folk group which has been gigging off and on from 2008 around the United States and Abroad. Playing in Indiana for years as "Upfolk", and on the West Coast as "Prospex" and "Travis Levity", this eclectic outfit has
had a fantastic time and come up with an odd variety of arts. Below are some examples of some of our adventures.
Theater & Puppetry
From 2010-2019 in Indiana we performed theater pieces and puppet shows about Goblins, Witches, Sea Magic, and Quings. With a troupe that ranged from 4-14, we put together and performed at least a show per year throughout the 2010s. Working with artists, puppeteers, carpenters, and musicians, our projects reached thousands of locals and transformed the community.
Stark Levity
A new project with my dear friend and collaborator, Marya Stark. Actually, it's hardly new, as we've been working together for a decade, but we're mixing our first album, due to release in October of 2023! Check out our musical meanderings on Spotify, or watch me pretend to ride a horse in Marya's music video "Crossroads.
