DON GATO... is an experimental group from Lima, Perú whose music defies classification. Founded in 2003*, led by guitarist Antonio Esteban, Don Gato combines Fusion, Psychedelic and Progressive elements.

The group made its professional debut under the patronage of the Spanish Embassy in Perú, through it's Cultural Center (CCE), an organization that promotes the arts. Although its material is original, Don Gato ocassionally includes some compositions by musicians such as McCoy Tyner, Paul Desmond, John Coltrane and John McLaughlin. The group's music is not Jazz, in its conventional definition, but it shares with that genre the emphasis on improvised solos which give the musicians a chance to create in real time, take risks, and allow the audience to participate more deeply. Its live performances include some at Lima's most prestigious club, The Jazz Zone, where it played for SRO audiences receiving kudos from the press.

As a quartet, Don Gato presented its first CD: "¡ZAS!", recorded live at Mandala Studio and received by the media with excellent reviews, including the Peruvian Magazine "Somos" and Germany's "Rocktimes". The group's music has been broadcasted by radio and T.V. in Perú, Canada, England, Argentina, Bosnia & Herzegovina and the U.S. The original cover art is by notable Peruvian painter Emilio Hernández.

DON GATO is always evolving, stay tuned four our next CD and new productions.

For information on our new format, check our blog "The Don Gato Story". Don Gato thanks Qing Liu for the Magic Horse Records logo! "¡ZAS!" is available at: Páginas del Perú

Dear butterfly,
Majestic monarch of the sky,
holder of universal secrets and reasons why,
color my canvas, touch my heart before I die,
to live in joy, teach me how never to say good-bye.

As you flutter by, you hear me sigh,
things missed because I forgot to try,
on your serene beauty I can rely,
oh what celestial magic you do supply.

Once you did struggle to be free,
you turned your life around to show me,
amazing my angel how you heard my plea,
you've cocooned my mind so I can see.

Lets fly together both as one,
and sore beyond time, once upon,
our silken wings God has spun,
Souls entwined, our infinite journey has just begun.
SUPERMAN
