Gato Loco
: website : facebook : twitter
Gato Loco was born on the streets of New York City. It's exotic and foreign, yet it's urban and familiar. This ten-piece assault force resembles a mambo band thrown into an arena of rock. Formed in 2006 by NYC native Stefan Zeniuk, joined by TubaJoe Exley and Clifton Hyde, this "Dancehall Leviathan" has received outrageous acclaim across Europe over the last year. "Just waiting to catch fire onstage" (Sud Ouest, France), "Exotic yet simultaneously urban" (Le Monde, France), "A real barnburner" (Paris DJs), "This band brims with enthusiasm and sounds like the orgasmic lovemaking between James Brown and Tito Puente" (de Volkskrant, The Netherlands).
Gato Loco's recent release, simply entitled "Gato Loco" is on Munich's Winter and Winter records, chronicles a live outdoor show on the steps of a wine chateau in Bordeaux, France during the summer of 2010. FAREWELL TO NORMAL SCENE celebrates the official USA release of this recording
