Rargo

Hailing from Port Macquarie on the states Mid-North Coast, Rargo is an exciting and innovative four piece ensemble fusing together the genres of reggae, funk, jazz and pop to create a unique sound they can rightfully call their own. Fronted by eighteen-year-old Patrick (Patty) Bolster, the band has brought their collection of originals to stages in Sydney over the last few months, always being met with enthusiasm and intrigue.

Whilst Patty's voice exudes the influence of Jazz and Folk, sounds of Angus Stone and Coldplay’s Chris Martin can be heard in his set. However, his vocal charisma can only be fully appreciated after hearing him sing. The musical styling of highly acclaimed saxophonist Caleb Schrader adds a sexy and mature edge to the band’s sound, while bassist Alistair McCulloch and drummer Joe Kernahan are the driving force behind Rargo’s tight and professional air. The result is a groovy and energetic sound that these guys love playing to audiences of all ages.

The next few months will see the release of Rargo’s first recording; the “Run to the City” EP - a collection of four of their favourite tracks which is sure to whet the appetite of their growing fan base. Their refreshing new sound is sure to turn heads as recordings become available and word spreads of this unique arrival to the music scene.
