Introducing the new high-energy music group, The Chicharones- an underground pop/rap/indie dynamic duo that is gearing up for their big appearance at The Warped Tour 2012. But that’s not all, because the duo is also getting ready for the release of their next album Swine Flew on June 19th.
The Chicharones will be coming to cities near you, so you should definitely check them out!
Using humor and harmony, they’ve created something entirely new, pushing the boundaries of what hip hop sounds like. You can expect 5 part harmonies, speed raps, a razor tight band, costume changes, syncopated dance moves, stage magic, standup comedy and the joyful interplay of veteran performers Sleep and Josh Martinez as they constantly raise the bar on what live performance can be.
As for their upcoming album Swine Flew, it’s the culmination of years of musical experimentation, uniting the content from past albums. THe Chicharones are looking to infect the world with their particular brand of greasy hip-hop magic. With influences from the Beach Boys to the Beastie Boys, the Beatles to the Beatnuts, The Chicharones have created an album that will speak to all generations.
