The Wolf Hongos

The Wolf Hongos are a 7 piece multi-influence band mixing folk music from all over the world with punk and rock feel and sound. Cultural and dirty much like the town that raised them, The title of their manifesto may read "lets all dance and have a good time, bastards".Born out of a smelly basement in 2009 in which they still reside, its always been about the exploration. The first idea was "Le

With passion for cultural music, and young recklessness. Relentless forces of Klezmer, samba, and flamenco collide for a noise all their own. They're a rolling party that not only asks for participation from the crowd around them, but demands it. A true example of the community music they hope to represent.
