Mambo Gumbo by Loco Ironico
Loco Ironico - Mambo Gumbo
After another two years of being asked what type of music they make, Loco Ironico now liken their sound to musical gumbo.
So with twelve new songs recorded live and undiluted, commenting on subjects from GMO crops to elusive future physical fitness, the title of their second album is…Mambo Gumbo!
Building on the critically acclaimed Carpe Afternoon - mixing sounds, styles and songs together into a slow-cooked sonic stew for your musical nourishment.
Recorded by Jerry Boys and graced by the talents of friends such as Phil Manzanera, Steve Sidwell,
Tony Remy, James McMillan and Ben Castle - Mambo Gumbo is full of flavour and guaranteed to require at least a second helping.

Loco Ironico is The brainchild of British singer-songwriter Joe Cang and Italian musician and composer Matteo Saggese
Songs of GMO crops, shipwreck and elusive future physical fitness that draw on New Orleans jazz, Cuban tango and calypso.
Think Randy Newman and Buena Vista.
As Joe says : ‘This is music for those with a taste for the ironic and laconic and for those who prefer whisky to tonic”
