Gringo Star
They are thrilled to present Atlanta’s retro-psychedelic garage rockers, Gringo Star, in Birkenhead on Wednesday 2nd July.
Across 15+ years and 8 albums, Gringo Star have made a name for themselves as one of Atlanta’s most valuable rock & roll exports, carrying the torch for hazy, psychedelic garage rock in a city primarily valued for its contributions to hip-hop. Gringo Star have outlasted wave after wave of buzz bands and indie blog darlings, carving their own career path through constant reinvention and an unparalleled work ethic, amassing a loyal and enthusiastic international fanbase along the way.
Gringo Star’s music blends psychedelic garage rock, doo-wop-inspired R&B, and British Invasion rock. Combining bubblegum melodies and punk-ish energy with psychedelic effects and dynamic rock rhythms, they strike a balance between vintage and modern influences to create a nostalgic yet vibrant sound.
