Foot Stompin Saturday

Randomly, I found myself on Alberta Saturday night watching pro-skater Leo Romero's band Travesura play. To my surprise, it wasn't just a drinking event!

Part indie, part old country, part Desire-era Bob Dylan (arguably Bob's best era?), Travesura kinda floored me.  I'm not sure how long they've been around, and if the answer's "forever," then I apologize for my tardiness on this matter. As I've said elsewhere, I don't really follow Leo's skating, per se (I don't really follow anyone's skating, per se), but I shall, from this date forward, follow his career in foot stompin harmonica powered acoustic punk meets old country rock music. And you—you should, too.

(Oh, a quick Instagram convo with the band just revealed they gots an EP coming out at the end of the month. Keep eyes/ears peeled!)
