The Kinky Coo Coos, es una formacion de Barcelona de amantes de la musica Jamaicana. Actualmente son una de las bandas con mas proyeccion dentro de los ritmos mas tradicionales, tras haber llevado su directo por las principales ciudades estatales y europeas, y haciendo de backing band para glorias Jamaicanas como: Dave Barker, Rico Rodriguez, Laurel Aitken (D.E.P.), Roy Ellis, Earl 16, Sister Audrey, Greg Lee & Alex Désert (Hepcat-USA).....

La banda reune en el escenario a 10 musicos: 2 cantantes femeninas, 3 vientos, 2 guitarras, teclista, contrabajo y presenta una variada formula para encandilar a cualquier adicto a la musica Jamaiquina, ofreciendo en sus sets, desde ska instrumental, o vocal; a sabroso rocksteady, pasando por el reggae.. mas gamberro o melodico, y hacer giros constantes al soul.

Hace ocho anos que la banda edito junto a el cantante Lord Kaya el album de debut de versiones titulado "Co Tonga Tonga" y cuatro anos que llegara a las tiendas su segundo album "Montjuic Boneyard".

Montjuic Boneyard fue editado por Liquidator Music & RedStar73 en España y por Ska in the World en Japon, lo que permitio a la banda aparecer en los recopilatorios Japoneses:"Moon Shine - Ska in The World Collection" y "Wonderful Smile - Ska in the World, vol 2" presentando dos dulces composiciones propias, junto a algunos de los mejores nombres de la escena internacional actual.

La locomotora Jamaicana de Barcelona con dos tours internacionales a sus espaldas, ha llevado su show show por escenarios de paises como: Francia, Belgica, Suiza, Slovenja, Austria, Republica Checa, Alemania.. y por diferentes ciudades de la peninsula.

The Kinky Coo Coos comenzaron el 2010 presentando su nuevo trabajo de estudio, un Ep llamado .."The Mean Machine" de la mano de ..Liquidator Music.., tambien autoproducido por la banda en "Kinkylab" donde la banda deja patente una renovacion en su sonido, transmitiendo mas energia y mucho mas soul.

Ahora, la banda prepara la salida de su segundo larga duración prevista para la primavera del 2011,

The Kinky Coo Coos han preparado una esquisita receta, donde el sabor del ska, rocksteady & reggae mas oldies, conseguiran hacerte bailar y sentirte como si estuvieras a finales de los anos 60! Disfrutalos!

They may be from Barcelona but The Kinky Coo Coos have a long history devoted to classic Jamaican rhythms. One of the hardest working bands on the live scene they offer catchy rocksteady, ska and soulful reggae. The band have backed Jamaican stars such as Dave Barker , Rico Rodriguez, Laurel Aitken (R.I.P) Roy Ellis, Earl 16, Sister Audrey, Greg Lee & Alex Désert (Hepcat-USA).....

We’re talking about some of the best musicians on the Catalunya scene. The classic line up of drums and upright bass supplying the rhythm along with two guitars and keyboards serving up the melodies with a brass section and two female vocalists means non stop dancing all night long.

Eight years ago The Kinky Coo Coo’s fronted by Lord Kaya launched their fantastic covers album. Three years later Montjuic Boneyard hit the record stores. That album’s release in Japan lead to the appearance of band’s own songs on two Japanese compilations: "Moon Shine - Ska in The World Collection" and "Wonderful Smile -Ska in the World, vol 2"

At the close of 2010 their Jamaican musical train arrived at Barcelona after two international tours. The Kinky Coo Coo’s had presented their new show in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenja, Rep. Cheka & Germany and several cities in Spain. En route they released a new single (Full of Hope/Alive Brains).Scorcha Records for the German market.

Enthused by the response to their tours the band headed for with renewed energy and laid down some soulful tracks in Kinkylab. Early in 2009 The Kinky Coo Coo’s issued a self produced EP called "The Mean Machine" on .. Liquidator.

The Kinky Coo Coos bring you the original sixties/seventies styles of the Jamaican golden era. They’re guaranteed to make you dance and feel as if you were backayard in Kingston

Enjoy it!
