Although his parents are Argentinean, singer/songwriter José González was born in Sweden, where he became nationally renowned for his mix of autumnal indie pop and intimate acoustics. Following stints with hardcore bands during the 1990s, he officially launched his solo career with the release of 2005’s Veneer, an entirely acoustic affair that reflected a childhood spent listening to equal parts bossa nova, classical, and post-punk by the likes of Joy Division. Two years later he released another album In Our Nature, which appeared in the UK Top 10. His last solo release is nearly seven years ago, but that doesn’t mean, he wasn’t productive. He released in this time two albums with his electro/pop project Junip and went on tour with the Berlin/Göteborg String Theory orchestra. In 2013 Hollywood called and Ben Stiller asked Jose for the soundtrack for his movie “The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty”.
Now he is presenting is new solo album Vestiges & Claws. Here you will find the typical acoustic guitar, intimate style and the perfect guitar technique combined with surprising rhythm.
He recorded the album by himself at home and also produced the whole album.
José González is coming on the 4th of March to Prague to the LMB. His last concert in Prague 6 years ago was sold out.
