After touring their experimental alt-rock around Argentina and France for the past several years, El Rio have now taken their particular sound science back up to NYC, where they just seem to get weirder and more addictive. First single ‘So Old As To Have Become New Again,’ (off the record of the same name) highlights a nod to ’80s synth cool, while ‘We’ve Both Got Fire’ captures a sunnier soul in unapologetic 8-bit riffs and lullaby steel string rhythms. With a sound all mixed up together in one tropical destination, it should be a pleasure for NYC music fans to witness them live at Pianos this Saturday 09.21 at 9 pm. Listen to ‘We’ve Both Got Fire’ below. – Mike Levine (@Goldnuggets)
