We welcome back Los Gusanos back to the Leftbank. This time as a 5 piece latin powerhouse. Los Gusanos was formed from the mutual adoration of Oscar Peterson and Errol Garner and the incredible musical dynamics and interplay permitted in trio format. The group have evolved musically to incorporate a concoction of Latin and Afro-Carribean influences within their Blues and Jazz roots to develop a diverse and eclectic sound. Their live shows are energetic and virtuosic; and have been likened to watching “a Hendrix jam at a latin dive-bar”.

In June 2017 Los Gusanos collaborated with a small Bristol label Tapedown Records, to release their debut single “Champeta”. This was followed by a European tour and a residency at London’s prestigious Troubadour venue, in Earl’s Court.

In 2018 they reworked Kenny Burrell’s classic “Chitlins Con Carne” and Latin classic “Por Qué Me Pegas?”. Accompanying tour dates have included London Jazz Fest, Cheltenham Jazz Fest and Stroud Jazz festival.

Don't forget we also have our Happy Hour on between 8pm and 9pm. £2.50 on all pints and selected spirit and mixers.
