#Los Saicos

[bandcampsnoop]

5/10/24.

I'm going to guess that The Garrys don't sound like any other band ever to come out of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. They sound like a combination of 60s girl band with surf music. In fact, in the Bandcamp notes for "Get Thee to a Nunnery", their style is described as a combination of "The Ventures, the drama of Ennio Morricone’s spaghetti westerns, the dreamy psychedelia of Kurt Vile, France Gall’s brand of mod-pop cheek, and the lo-fi garage noir of Los Saicos."

I would add Electrelane and Barbara Manning to that description.

The Garrys are made of up of the three Maier sisters and they have releases going back to 2015. They have a new single, "Cakewalk" which may signal a new release in the future.

"Get Thee to a Nunnery" and many of their other releases are through Saskatoon label Grey Records (the label has also released work from Shirley & The Pyramids).

Los Saicos was a Peruvian Rock band made in 1964 and are considered the earliest instance of Punk rock bands in the world.

As many other rock bands tried to mimic the beatles and other british bands, their different sound made them stand out a lot and also made them flounder in the beginning until 1966, and even then it was not that sizeable, their most famous songs are "Fugitivo de alcatraz", "El Entierro de los gatos" and "Ana".

Ironically all the band members hate rock. Cecilia Pantoja or Cecilia la Incomparable was a Chilean Tango Rock Jewish musician and one of the earliest and pioneer women rockers from the 60s.

Cecilia broke out as a soloist in the full glory of the New Wave, rising towards the mid-1960s as the biggest youth star of the time, although her style and repertoire did not fully respond to the mold of the movement. Cecilia acquired her own personality with a diverse catalog of songs ascribed to the Latin and European musical tradition.

has won one President of the Republic National Music Award in 2019, and has been dubbed "Queen of the gays and ladies of the night". Her most famous songs are "Baño de mar a medianoche", "Pure de papas" and "Aleluya"

But what if punk wasn't invented in London, New York or another English-speaking country… but in Peru? Erwin Flores is the lead singer of the band "Los Saicos" - the first punk band in the world?

Latin American surf music is seriously feral. They're like a surf proto-punk garage band minus the garage.

(caution: LOUD)

ME DICEN EL MATADOR

A Cassian Andor rock en español fanmix

"Rock en español" is the term given to all Spanish-language rock music, of any subgenre. Because of the diversity of music already present in hispanophone communities, it's given way to a wide array of musical subgenres, from latin fusion to Andaluz rock to Andean rock. This playlist includes music from Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, México and Perú, ranging from genre-defining acts like Los Jaivas (Andean rock) and Los Saicos (punk-before-punk), to hugely popular artists like Los Prisioneros and Charly García, to small, local bands like Alcaico and Semilla Distópica.
