Los Venturas have to offer a warm, varied, powerful and danceable instrumental live set, with one single purpose at heart: throwing a decent party and set the scene for one hell of a night.
Based on the Californian 60ies surf sound, they create a unique but accessible blend, fusing an array of different styles such as euro-instro, rock, funk soul, raï and gipsy.
For over 12 years they have been touring all over Europe and even in California, where they recorded their latest albums ‘Kaleydoskop’ (LP) and ‘Paisley Beach’ (10”).
Driven by positive vibes they bring their Euro- instro with a wink and a smile, providing just the right spark to set the night on fire.

REVIEWS
-----------------------------
“I strongly recommend it for anyone into surf, space and a touch of mid-'60s Super Psychedelics.” Alan Taylor – Pipeline Magazine (UK)
To their fantastic tour last summer that included a performance at Tiki Oasis 12, Los Venturas present a top-notch of 7 new track, recorded at none other than Pete Curry's Pow-Wow Fun Room in LA, on sonically gold vinyl! Standouts include the pure 60s beach-party "Beach Bunny". Jonpaul Balak – Tiki Magazine (USA)
While on tour in the USA, they wowed fans and also recorded some tracks that resulted in this excellent 2013 album. First-rate playing and some unusual effects give their music an original sound. Listen for space themes, middle Eastern influences, sitar-like guitar, and some very cool drumming. Fun! Cousin Mary – KFJC 89.7 FM (USA)
“On A Market in Beirut” y “What About Uranus” ofrecen un infalible combo de sintetizadores, cítaras, saxofón y guitarra jaguar que es imposible resistirse. Diego Álvarez Rex – Indie Rocks (Mexico)
De futuristische exotica van ‘What About Uranus’ is dan weer een versmelting van 50’s science-fiction-effecten en ‘Peter Gunn’. Hun Versie van de jazzklassieker ‘Caravan’ deint perfect mee op deze surfgolf. Georges Tonla Briquet – Rifraf Magazine(BE)
Ja, Los Venturas doen inderdaad hun eigen ding, altijd beter dan jezelf herhalen of anderen klakkeloos copiëren. Frantic Franky – Boppin’ Around (NL)
Saw these guys a couple of times in California in August, 2012. Once at the Surf Guitar 101 Convention and at Tiki Oasis. They blew the lid off of both venues! Really different, intricate take on "surf" instrumental. They can't be pigeonholed! Excellent band and I hope they stay together forever! Miles 1350 – iTunes customer review
