Between the nods to Morricone&#8217;s tense, tumbleweed atmospheres and the Gypsy Kings&#8217; manic Mediterranean energy, a New York Dolls raw glam spark and a surplus of prime G &#8216;n&#8217; R attitude!<br><br>The sound is flamenco &amp; rumba in a head-on collision with punk\/rock riffs, pounding bass and thrashing drums. The songs span madly in the best rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll tradition with big hooks, attitude, and sleaze. Yet those flamenco breaks got into your head and refuse to leave &#8211; this unique hybrid rocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/eur06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fgroups%2FGypsyPistoleros%2F&amp;data=02%7C01%7C%7Cdebfb624687d449f58f908d816be116a%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637284352872751088&amp;sdata=zRmA58xrth6xlD8kKSqN%2FPzD%2BarQQ%2FcgO%2B5dZwEZh%2FI%3D&amp;reserved=0\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/GypsyPistoleros\/<\/a><br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/eur06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FGPistoleros&amp;data=02%7C01%7C%7Cdebfb624687d449f58f908d816be116a%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637284352872761082&amp;sdata=dA80bOMMRr6VDQuWGSarEBjySMAJjfO9XCXpDUDUlV8%3D&amp;reserved=0\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/GPistoleros<\/a><br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/eur06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgoldenrobotrecords.com%2Friot-records%2Fgypsy-pistoleros%2F&amp;data=02%7C01%7C%7Cdebfb624687d449f58f908d816be116a%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637284352872761082&amp;sdata=zBx%2BkG8FyrIdujGH8Jpm8ObGfTxFOmKK3gn7B8NV01Q%3D&amp;reserved=0\">https:\/\/goldenrobotrecords.com\/riot-records\/gypsy-pistoleros\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Check out the video here:\u00a0https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=liftq06Ma3c GYPSY PISTOLEROS&nbsp;the swashbuckling renegade flamenco rock rumba punk &#8216;n&#8217; roll&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16397,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23,2],"tags":[1999,317,2000],"class_list":["post-16395","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music-news","category-news","tag-gypsy-pistoleros","tag-hard-rock","tag-livin-la-vida-loca"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16395","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16395"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16395\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16398,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16395\/revisions\/16398"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16397"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16395"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16395"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16395"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
