Spain’s electric-funk duo, The Pinker Tones, have delivered their latest musical masterpiece, “Wild Animals”, and are gearing up for sultry, summer, stage nights playing the 2008 Vans Warped Tour.
“Our last album, ‘The Million Colour Revolution’, was about utopia, a projection for how we wanted the world to be,” Mister Furia explains. “’Wild Animals’ is about reality, our interpretation of the actual world we live in. Songs like ‘The Whistling Song’, ‘24’ and ‘On Se Promenait’ are some of our happiest and most nostalgic yet.”
Last year, the group was the subject of a New York Times feature, had an A&E television special, performed on KCRW’s “Morning Becomes Eclectic”, had a song featured on hit sitcoms “Ugly Betty” and “Entourage” and saw heavy video play on networks like mtvU, MTV Tr3s, Mun2, and LATV. The Pinker Tones also made a major splash at last year’s SXSW, where they performed five shows in only 36 hours and also blew away the audience at KCRW’s Sounds Eclectic Evening in Los Angeles alongside leading artists like The Shins, Lily Allen and Rodrigo and Gabriela. The Pinker Tones recent single “Karma Hunters” was also selected by national bilingual youth network Mun2 as the theme song for its popular reality show, ‘Chicas Project’.
With a live show that combines the intensity of a rock band and the excitement of a DJ set, the group is moving along on the path to global domination. Be a part of it by checking out the dynamic duo onstage at the Vans Warped Tour.
