Artist description Gogo creates rhythm driven musical compositions "that are extremely rich in atmosphere". Gogo layers the extreme breadth of Binga's vocals (the combined amplitude of both Tori Amos and Alanis Morsette) as yet another extrinsic instrument.

Music Style Mass appeal pop songs with "unique exoticism" and lots of rich atmosphere.

Musical Influences Bjork, Peter Gabriel, Prince and Mozart.

Artist History Federal prison, courtesy of the Navy's AWOL policy, and Binga's day job as Disneyland's "Pocahontas" and European and Japanese tours with recording artist Anri separated the siblings early in their adult lives. The two were reunited in Europe and began touring. Playing covers in a French café with definite mafia underrtones left the duo with a strong desire to cultivate their own lifelong musical style. They returned to the US to record their debut CD "Here" using studio musicians and a lot of digital mastery.

Group Members Albe Bonacci, a Los Angeles based studio drummer. Derek Frank rounds out the extremely tight rhythm section on bass. Ryan Freeland plays "just about everything else," including guitar, accordian and keyboards. Tomasina (Binga) Abate Voice like wind...surrounding you. Joe (Gogo) Abate plays the piano and is the Eccentric Ivory Thumper.

Instruments Guitar, accordion, vocals, keyboard, bass, various electronics and percussion
