SENOR COCONUT
Señor Coconuts 10-Year Jubilee
Señor Coconut has every reason to celebrate:10 years ago, he presented his unique project at the (then still vibrant, Cologne-based) Popkomm. Since then, he has toured the world, releasing albums on every continent. His tracks are featured on hundreds of compilations, in advertising spots (recently: Heineken in the USA) and on film soundtracks (Y tu mama tambien etc.). He has shared a stage with such legends are the Yellow Magic Orchestra. Musicians such as Joe Jackson and David Bowie are self-proclaimed fans and invited him for shows. So its time to take a look back and re-release some of his early work. Needless to say, it is all done in true Coco style with loving care and attention to detail. In the USA, Nacional Records, the leading label for Latin Alternative Music, has been taking his work on board since last year. Señor Coconut will be celebrating this round anniversary by going on tour again with his fantastically talented line-up.
