El javi Trio
Los Angeles, California, United States
Bio
El Javi hailing from Mexico City immersed himself in the LA band scene and spent several years playing out and teaching guitar by day. Along the way, boredom- or something close to artistic malaise- overcame him and El Javi rediscovered his classical guitar and a thirst for a more authentic, original expression than ever before.
Though steeped in Flamenco tradition, there were still unexpressed crunch pedal wishes and half stack dreams lingering in his ‘rockero’ subconscious. In due time, El Javi crossed paths with the perfect in-the-pocket kit drummer Alastair Wilson who happened to know of an edgy bass player obsessed with atmospheric effects Mario Gonzalez. Soon enough the El Javi Trio began to explore and carve out a niche all their own, bridging the sounds and rhythms of worlds old and new and painting genre-bending sonic portraits of three continents merged in the unitary culture and passion of a breed of music all it’s own.
