Tuco's Lounge

The band:

“Tuco’s Lounge is the devil behind the wheel – a one way ride to satisfy all lusts – a single minded mission to take on the world – Rock’n’Roll to steal your soul.”- - The Devil himself, Oct. 2005.



From another perspective: Tuco’s Lounge is a beautiful musical journey. They combine the desert-like landscape of Calexico and Nick Cave with the raw sound of hell bound Rock’n’Roll. Escaping further categorisation, the music is equally suited for small Rock’n’Roll clubs and large festival stages.



On stage, the band is a breathtaking experience. Tuco’s Lounge always delivers great live shows. They are passionate about their music and intense in their performances. The key to success is unique qualities combined with the collective effort to bring out the best of each other. The boys love the life in the spotlight. The joy and excitement of the band becomes infectious - it is impossible not to feel good during a Tuco’s Lounge show.
