Hobo Bordeaux

Bio:

From a tired old world strutting worn out styles came desperate shouts and pleas to be entertained. Some were completely ignored, some were answered in the form of fluorescent spray on denim regurgitations. Others were treated with whiskey soaked bandages and chewing tobacco. Enter Hobo Bordeaux who draw on the strange rambling ideas of the latter. These boys began piecing together a cabaret flavoured music review that draws on and would surely entertain the likes of Cab Calloway, Tom Waits, Sam Cooke, Mos Def, Lenard Cohen and David Bowie. With their 'Clunky-cuban-swamp-blues-spaghetti-soul-western' sound, these boys are completely alone in one of the most ridiculously named genres of all time. Need I continue? These guys are not to be missed!!
