MARIACHI EL BRONX... WHY WE'RE EXCITED: What could be a better addition to the 2012 Big Day Out lineup than the Mexican alter-ego of hardcore/punk band The Bronx - Mariachi El Bronx. Swapping distorted guitars for ukuleles and horns, Mariachi El Bronx truly encapsulate the sound of Summer, and will be the perfect soundtrack to relaxing in the sunshine, perhaps with a cold beer (or margarita!) and good friends. Personnel: MATT CAUGHTHRAN [ vocals ] JOBY J. FORD [ guitar, vihuela, jarana, ukulele, requinto romantico ] VINCENT HIDALGO [ guitarron, jarana, guitar, requinto romantico ] KEN HORNE [ guitar ] BRAD MAGERS [ horns, backing vocals ] JORMA VIK [ drums, percussion ]
"I OWNED A MARIACHI EL BRONX T-SHIRT/BELT BUCKLE BEFORE BIG DAY OUT"...
KEY TRACKS: ‘Cell Mates’, ’48 Roses’, ‘Holy’. MARIACHI EL BRONX IN VIDEO-FORM... Mariachi El Bronx performing ’48 Roses’ live on Jay Leno... 'Cell Mates' music video... ‘Slave Labor’ live for Rock Sound...
