   About Barrio Tiger
Barrio Tiger is an L.A. 4 piece whose gimmick is Rock and Roll! Our lineup on any given night may include former or current members of Qui, The Hangmen, The Starvations, or even Guzzard and Helmet. Formerly known as Thee L.A. Gentlemen Callers, Barrio Tiger recalls the song craft of Paul Weller, Robert Pollard, and Uncle Tupelo and filters it through the bombast of bands like Dead Boys, Jawbreaker, and Dinosaur Jr. In so doing, we carry the torch of rock and roll with beer soaked intensity not felt since the days when the Replacements stole your heart. The following is a partial list of bands we've played with that we like: The Circle Jerks, 400 Blows, Burning Brides, Young Heart Attack, Immortal Lee County Killers, Sirhan Sirhan, Tsk Tsk, Nantucket Suicide, Moonrats, Distortion Felix, The Pity Party, The Starlite Desperation, LIONS, Viva K, Fortune..s Flesh, The Stitches, The Heartaches, The Widows, Vagrant Vinny and the Instigators, Crystal Antlers, The Red Onions, The Makes Nice, Qui, Monsters Are Waiting, Horses, Wiskey Biscuit, The Ravens, Mosquito Bandito, Boll Weevil, The Checkers, Shakey Mallard, Buffy Swayze, Jessie Deluxe, Deludes, Qwilly, Austera, The Fresh Kills, Downtown/Union, Poor People. Barrio Tiger's newest effort, a 5 song e.p entitled "The Kindness Of Strangers" was recorded at Steve Albini's Electrical Audio studios in Chicago, IL and produced by Manny Nieto, known to those in the know as frontman for the mighty Distortion Felix. Manny has recorded Circle Jerks, Mars Volta, the Breeders, Darker My Love, among a big roster of great L.A. bands. It was mastered by Mark Chalecki at Capitol Mastering. Three of the four songs on this page are from this recording, as well as a video for a fourth if you click on the video chingadera. Anyone interested in an enhanced copy of it which includes the video for "Stab, Shoot, And Disappear", please contact us directly. Our first record, "Whenever Wheneverland" can be purchased online by clicking on the link below. Special thanks to Kat Corbett at KROQ, Mark Sovel, and Erin Broadley at Indie 103.1 and Monica at KSLG for getting us on the airwaves! .. --> --> --> CDBABY LINK for THEE L.A. GENTLEMEN CALLERS: Whenever Wheneverland --> THEE L.A. GENTLEMEN CALLERS: Whenever Wheneverland Below is a Suicide Girls interview clip from this year's SXSW. We're in the same segment as Night Marchers. That makes us cool. Also, we love Erin.

Hey guys. You rocked on Saturday.

Calixto, thanks for hosting me this weekend. But I can't forgive you for making me like LA. It was so much easier to hate LA. Now I gotta be tempted to move there.

Damn you!
The Deludes





Apr 20 2008 9:52 PM

I can't tell you how pissed and disappointed I was this weekend. It was so frustrating being 2 hours away and completely unable to get there. I hope that the show was great last night. Lets try again sometime this summer.
