Biography

'Fab Guiro!' is beat music in a fascinating, exotic robe, a drum roll of liverpudlian song pearls. The songs of the Beatles on ´Fab Guiro!´ do actually sound like copacabana, cuba and kingston – but always like the english harbour town in the summer – northern songs in a southern style are indeed warm songs, ´Fab Guiro!´ simply means lots of fun, entertainment and thus celebrates our heroes.

'Fab Guiro!' is beat music in a fascinating, exotic robe, a drum roll of liverpudlian song pearls. The songs of the Beatles on ´Fab Guiro!´ do actually sound like copacabana, cuba and kingston – but always like the english harbour town in the summer – northern songs in a southern style are indeed warm songs, ´Fab Guiro!´ simply means lots of fun, entertainment and thus celebrates our heroes. Where the Fab Four work with a guitar solo for example, you will hear a vibe solo on ´Fab Guiro!´ and the intense female soul of Majka Edyole, of course with a little spanish accent in her brilliant (english) voice. The spirited lead singer of The Sweet Vandals is THE musical figurehead on this album. ´Fab Guiro!´ is a latin american beatles songbook, honors the band as ´mozart´s of pop´ and really tributes to their classic songs – simply because the coversongs treat the originals manifoldly and full of respect! The interpretations of these beatles tunes do actually gain momentum by partly obsure modalities – so all twelve tunes turn out to be groovy, full of soul and stylish and accord these Lennon / McCartney classics and Harrison´s ´Taxman´ as new, timeless and post-modern vesture! <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Ben+From+Corduroy">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
