Baríton Loco has played at Sunburn Surf Fest 2023.

The debut EP “Down Below” by Baríton Loco blows away all expectations of the clean ‘Beach Boy sound’ in surf rock! This surf rock quartet brings the rawness and finesse back from the instrumental 50s and 60s and don’t try to hide their history in the heavier music genres. Think of the sound of Link Wray, the attitude of The Cramps and the class of Mancini.

Founded in the home of family Declercq in 2019, they played their first show at the blues club Missy Sippy, the same place where they released their EP. The long concert-silence following their first show didn’t hold brothers Danté and Faust back of producing a short devilish EP that captivates the live energy of Baríton Loco on vinyl. What you can expect from “Down Below” is: mean twangy guitars, a piercing bass six, raw driving drums and a nice cup of fuzz mixed in.

“Down Below” is the ideal soundtrack for your slasher horror film. Not for the faint of heart!
