Gizmo Varillas connects the world – both musically and geographically. The British-based Spanish songwriter draws on a wide range of influences to create his unique style: Latin grooves, Afrobeats, singer-songwriter sensibilities and guitar licks reminiscent of John Frusciante. He combines these with lyrics that are at once light and profound, recalling Bob Marley.
After his album ‘Out Of The Darkness’ he has finally arrived on the global indie music map – with songs in Netflix and Apple TV productions, international radio plays and celebrated collaborations, including with Tony Allen and Baio (Vampire Weekend). Gizmo Varillas makes music that defies boundaries – emotionally, rhythmically, universally.
