Independent Weekly, Get Out: Music worth leaving the house to hear this week >>
Bio Ritmo Sunday, June 27 The Pour House Puerto Rican Pride Day may have come and gone, but it's not too late to get in on the party: Bio Ritmo returns to The Pour House this Sunday to let their freaky bandera fly. Touting a critically acclaimed new album of salsa, bomba, bolero and funk, this 9-piece salsa machine has something for everybody, from new generation salseros to old school Latin groovasaurs. Stylish yet unpretentious, they don't pander to the trends--you won't catch them playing cheesy "salsa romantica" covers in matching suits. As an indie band they are as hard-hitting as they come: from Giustino the timbalero (who's been known to break cymbals), to tropical storm Marlysse at the piano, to Gabo's suave power on the congas, backed by a gutsy brass section and fronted by Rei who sings like an acrobat without the net. Bio Ritmo plays it like they mean it. Haven't heard them in a few years? Hermano, check this out. --Sylvia Pfeiffenberger 06/23/04 >> go there
