Gasperilla

XFM BEST UPLOADED BAND RUNNER UP 2007!

About Me


Months old, and Gasperilla have already been voted Manchester’s greatest unsigned talent, winning an opening slot at Manchester International festival, playing the 5000 capacity outdoor gig at the Lowry and supporting Gossip, which marked their tenth gig. The band had already catapulted onto the radio-waves of Xfm thanks to a thirsty, ever-expanding fanbase. Gasperilla play it hard, fast and loud with all the talent and spite of musicians who have done some time on the scene but with the fierce energy of the fresh new band that they are. It’s adrenalin-pumping, soulful rock & roll: mighty vocals, stunningly graceful duelling guitars, intricate and potent bass licks and an inconceivably thunderous drummer. Witness their compelling energy live as they continue to rock the hottest venues in town. They are on the brink of something huge-and you were here first.
