FiGO's Top Song: I'M GONE Buy Album

Billboard

Scandalized by experimental alternative and electronic music, New Yorks FIGO is vocalist/guitarist Parag Bhandari, bassist Paul Daly, guitarist Robert Rivadeneira, programmer Ryan Jones, and drummer Evan Lytton. The band fuses intense live energy with pounding beats and samples, influenced by groups as diverse as Primal Scream, Pink Floyd, The Misfits, and The Chemical Brothers to name a few. FIGO also doubles as a two-man DJ crew, with Parag and Paul on the decks, who mix heavy house with punk and rock. With a 4-song EP released in late 2006, FIGO has been busy this past year, garnering a strong fan-base through both live and DJ gigs at clubs across the country. On their own, the band has already crushed performances at venues like Crobar (Chicago) and Bowery Ballroom (NYC), appeared at major music festivals like Amsterjam and SXSW, licensed music to the likes of CMJ Magazine and Marlboro, and have shared bills with artists such as The Presets, She Wants Revenge, and The Foo Fighters. With a debut record and remixes by some of New York's top DJs releasing this winter, look for a monster 2008 for FIGO. Ole!
