   About Muy Cansado
Muy Cansado is Chris, Lisa & Dave. Chris sings and plays guitar. Lisa sings and plays bass. Dave plays the drums and will occasionally grunt or yelp. Their debut album Stars & Garters will be released summer 2008.


"The threesome have released one hell of a debut album in Stars + Garters (highly recommended) released just last week. The album is rife with great guitars, counter basslines and strong drums. In other words it's just damn good rock!"
RYAN'S SMASHING LIFE


"Muy Cansado thrives on the dueling vocals of Chris Mulvey and Lisa Libera making their sound very reminiscent of the Pixies. Their debut Stars & Garters is a raw rock sounding, bar ready and intense experience from beginning to end. It is full of straight ahead indie punk explosions that will take you by surprise and reaching for the repeat button when it's over."
FIRE NOTE FIRE DRILLS


"With a knack for glimmering guitar hooks, dreamy melodies , and snarling vocals with ostensible angst, one might be reminded more of The Pixies when listening to Muy Cansado."
- OBSCURE SOUND


"Lead vocalist and guitarist chris Mulvey rails on the microphone like a modern day, not-so-stoned Bob Dylan and bassist Lisa Libera chimes in with decidedly more melodic counterpoint on back-up vocals. . . .While Mulvey and Libera fuss back and forth on the vocals, drummer David Fine makes a non-vocal contribution in the say of solid beats that keep things going."
- NORTHEAST PERFORMER


"They rocked exquisitely and had the room enchanged, securing a spot on my mental 'bands to watch' list."
- THREE IMAGINARY GIRLS


"You would expect a group calling themselves Muy Cansado to do something to earn that name. After listening to them, you'll understand why the group may be "very tired." Take the energy of 90's alternative rock, mixed with a modern sound and energy, and you have Muy Cansado."
STRANDED IN STEREO


"I am soooo glad that this one appeared in my mailbox - seriously one of the better debut albums we have heard for some time! Our 4.0 Score is the second highest ranking we have given a band in '08 for their first full-length LP! (We hear a lot of new music. This is a serious compliment.)"
RYAN'S SMASHING LIFE


"Muy Cansado sound anything but tired. Sure, the band's sound hearkens back to the alternative grooves of Dinosaur Jr. and The Lemonheads, but offers a fresh new twist."
THE BOSTONIST


"While the band's occasionally wanders down dusty roads and past cacti and tumbleweeds, they are perfectly average-looking people completely opening themselves up on the stage."
- NORTHEAST PERFORMER


"Muy Cansado is certainly a band to keep you eye (or ear, whichever is applicable here) on"
- ENOUGH COWBELL


"Mulvey's vocals, sometimes tortured, sometimes violent, sometimes beaten-down, always begs the question 'What's going on with these people?'. . . .Watching her [Libera] play bass could make the entire world want to play bass."
- NORTHEAST PERFORMER


"About once a year, I hear a local band that delivers the goods. So I guess this year it's gonna be Muy Cansado ("Very Tired"). I like their attitude."
PANTS CENTRAL LIFEBOAT


"Straight forward guitar rock."
ENOUGH COWBELL


"Though they stray on similar grounds of late 80's and early 90's college-rock and alternative, the influences are merely one of the factors as the vocal, rhythmic, and melodic presentations differ significantly in substance. The diversity is a breath of fresh air, especially with each song being of near equal quality."
- OBSCURE SOUND


"Stars & Garters is well worth a listen."
AND MORE AGAIN


"Muy Cansado provided a satisfying payoff, transforming a downtown club into a dusty saloon."
- NORTHEAST PERFORMER


"Catchy."
BERKELEY PLACE


"Their name means 'very tired,' but Muy Cansado sounds wide awake."

Chris, I finally made it out to a show, and it was incredible. I couldn't make it over to say hi cause I had to run after your set was over, but you guys were awesome, and you definitely know how to pack a place on a Friday night. I'll have to take in another show soon. Congrats on the album and good luck on your tour.
