The blues can also be named in Spanish, and Gatos Bizcos is an outstanding example of that. After the overwhelming success of their first release "I Can't Believe My Eyes” the group has just published "Eurovegas" their second CD, more mature and reflecting a vider range of styles from blues to swing, from rhythm & blues to soul with echoes from the most primitive New Orleans Jazz.

On "Eurovegas" the listener will experience a clear evolution in the sound of this Madrid based band when listening trough its eleven original songs. Joining the band is also a new member, the pianist Miguel Rodríguez. (Translated from Spanish.)

After an astonishing tour featuring Chicago blues legend Eddie C. Campbell, Los Gatos Bizcos (The Cross-Eyed Cats) are proud to present to the public their new album "I Can't Believe My Eyes”. Los Gatos Bizcos just play music the way music is supposed to be played, capturing and combining the essence of blues, rock, swing and soul music and Mr. Eddie C. Campbell made all this possible.

Quique Gomez, lead singer and harmonica player of Los Gatos Bizcos, met Eddie C. in Chicago and a few months later the band was backing the Chicago master up on his European Tour. The tour and the opportunity of learning and experiencing the knowledge of one of the greatest Chicago blues artist, was just the beginning of what now has become a solid and well know band throughout the whole country.

"I Can't Believe My Eyes" has been recorded like one of those "old school" records by Santi Martin at Funkameba Studios in Madrid, Spain. Eleven tracks, most of them originals and some covers, featuring of course Eddie C. Campbell on "That’s When I Know".

Personnel: Quique Gomez (vocals, harmonica, guitar), Paul Sanpa (guitar), Hector Rojo (vocals, bass), Miguel Benito (drums).
