Gaijin A Go-Go albums
"GO GO SEE GAIJIN GO GO! LOVED THEIR FIRST CD. LOOKING FORWARD TO THEIR NEXT ALBUM." -FRED SCHNEIDER, A B-52 ”INFAMOUS . . . GLEEFULLY ERSATZ “ - THE NEW YORK TIMES ”UM…ITS A BIT WEIRD. I DONT KNOW HOW TO SAY IT.“
- STEVEMCCLURE, AUTHOR OF NIPPON POP ON NPR Greetings from the Far East...River, Brooklyn, New York. Over the bridge and through groovy woods to the home of GAIJIN A GO-GO. Feels a bit foreign at firstand it is. "Gaijin" is the Japanese word for "foreign barbarian." And "go" means the number five. Five -five, get it? The best of the East meets the beats of the West with a sound that gets your booty shakin’. Coming from a city where it’s normal for different cultures to electrify one another, GAIJIN A GO-GO are a high-voltage short circuit. It’s the sound you never knew you were missing: a Hullabaloo lost in translation! GAIJIN A GO-GO: With a wink and prayer always sending the message to Let The Rising Sun Shine In!
