About
VicenteGayo:
VicenteGayo is a band originating from Satelité,
Estado de México, which was formed in mid 2007. VicenteGayo’s sound is
defined by the basic elements of rock (lead guitar, bass, and
percussion) in conjunction with “circuit bending” (electronic games and
synths from the 80’s) created by themselves. This fusion of instruments
creates an original sound that is very much their own.
Their
first material was recorded in December of 2007 at Asrael Studios (also
used by Austin TV), mixed and produced by Erick Espartacus, mastered by
Harris Newman (Arcade Fire, Crystal Castles, etc) in Montreal Canada.
The
first two singles, “Fin De Transmission” and “G-A-Y-O” have received
airplay on major radio stations such as Reactor, EXA, Radio-Ibero, and
Interferencia, among others. The video for “Fin De Transmission” has
been on regular rotation on MTV Latinoamerica, Telehit, Efecto TV, and
Canal Once.
In 2009, VicenteGayo has performed in Mexico’s major
cities (Monterrey, Guadalajara, Cd. Juarez, etc) in addition to a Los
Angeles performance. Now, in 2010, VicenteGayo has been invited to play
at SXSW and more recently has been confirmed to perform at Latin
America’s most important “Rock en Español” music festival, Vive Latino.
