MusikoNalda (AKA Pete Nalda, AKA Zoro Euskadi)

About Me

Background By Root2Art MusikoNalda is keyboards, fake guitars and beatboxes as well as acoustic and electricfied accordions (on acoustic and band gigs). The Styles reflect influences from electronic music, blues, ska, latin, ethnic folk, avant-garde, and jazz. I also play in Rumbullion, Streetsqueeze, The Gomer Pilots, WK Burchenal and the Happy Campers, and sometimes will venture out to gig with Slim Chance and the Survivors, in Abilene, or even with Sawyer Ward in Ruidoso, NM, or wherever someone sends me a plane or bus ticket to. All of the music here on this page is recorded live to 2 stereo tracks without multi-tracking or midi-sequencing, thus the music you hear here can be performed live should any venue be interested.Other than playing music, other activities include an interest in Basque Culture, Computers (especially Macs), and owning/moderating the Toy&MicroKeyboard group on yahoogroups
