If you tried to nail down Peyoti For President‘s sound using musical genres then Flamenco and Punk are going to feature highly. This is why we couldn’t resist coming up with a cheeky Spanish homage to The Clash for this weekend’s Live Sunday flyer.

Come down to Camino on July 10 to see three of their members play a free live gig with support from the FFTANG! Soundsistema.

Peyoti For President’s politically enfused lyrics invite obvious comparisons to Manu Chao and their world fusion punk does at times remind you of Gogol Bordello, but their influences cut way deeper than that. This is first and foremost dance music. From the samba-driven hip hop of ‘We The People’ to the flamenco rock of ‘Drifting’ they never sacrifice groovability for lyrical might.

Check out their music below and see them play a free gig at FFTANG! FFTANG!’s Live Sunday at Camino on 10 July.

Can’t remember how this cropped up in my collection. Most likely part of a charity shop haul. Check la Harlem Shuffle style intro.
