Show Notes

Band plays SXSW, the right person catches their set, and the big ball starts rolling. And while that treasured dream has largely been lost to obscurity, merely existing in the whispered annals of Live Music Capitol lore, Austin’s the Animeros are smack in the throes of living it. Their blend of Colombian, Mexican, and West Texas influences weaves a sonic tapestry blending boleros, psychedelia, and cumbia. Their SXSW set last year put them in the crosshairs of one Dan Auerbach, who produced the group’s debut single “Gózalo” that came out in August. A cover of “Gózalo Mulata” by Texas Latin soul artist Esteban “Steve” Jordan (AKA the Jimi Hendrix of the accordion), the trio married Jordan’s raw, emotive energy to their own psych-funk edge.

The Animeros swung by our tent backstage at ACL Fest last weekend to perform “Gózalo.” Find the video at KUTX.org.
