Tatu Carreta

The armadillos revenge!

About Me

Tatu Carreta started as a "restaurant band" with just 2 guitars, Pablo (from Argentina) and Pablo (from Spain), about March 07. A few weeks later we got a lovely flute player from Argentina, called Cande. We played in two restaurants every week and played a few gigs. In July Manuel, who used to play drums in a band with Pablo (the spanish one), came from Spain and he's playing percussion in the band.Cande went to Spain unfortunately (te hechamos de menooos!) so our friend Holy (who played flute on the recording) and Oli (The Navigantes/Fulibulbus) joined us for some gigs.On February/March 08, Cat (bass) and Vanessa (vocals) and Louise (sax, flute) joined the band, so now it's sounding bigger than ever!! We have been recording some tunes, so hopefully in a month we'll upload them here! MyGen Profile Generator
