Bio
Cajita is a 21st century one-man band. . .a multi-instrumentalist producer who makes music with computers, instruments, voices and loop pedals, and then travels around the world playing it at people.
His electronica live show features a mixture of on-the-fly looping, beats, trumpets, vocal harmonies, guitars and synths. He has been described as “the missing link between Nick Drake and Aphex Twin.”
His acoustic live show features intricately live-looped acoustic guitars and vocals.
Videos of both sets can be found at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Cajita/140451919327198
Cajita has toured extensively in the UK, Europe and the US, supporting bands like Maps, Merz and Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, as well as playing on the same bills as Bjork, Thom Yorke and Plaid.
His debut album "The Ellipsis" was released on Series Two Records in the US and on Little Box Records in the UK in 2009. It is available on Spotify, itunes and all digital retailers.
