Los Krokodillos

About Me

Los Krokodillos are a band of internacional musicians living and working in Barcelona. We play an energetic mix of New Orleans/Chicago style jazz with a touch of funk and pop added. All of it swinging and hot. The band has appeared in festivals and clubs throughout Spain. Also toured in Denmark and Norway and was recently the subject of a channel 33 documentary on national TV in Catalunya. A new documentary of the bands tour in Denmark has just been completed and will be shown soon. The band toured Australia playing at the Wangaratta Jazz festival with great success in 2008. Also touring in Portugal this year. Our new Cd Krokopop is currently awaiting release ( if we can ever get it together! ) A collection of pop tunes from the 80's reworked in our own inimitable style. Sounds pretty damm good too! NEW CD for June 2007!! "Los Krokodillos live in Scandanavia" released this month. Details on the bands website. Still available in 2009...and still hot!
