Gorgoro review by Manilalounge.com


Gorgoro is a band like no other. A puppet! A puppet for a vocalist! And a pink one with a thick unibrow at that! Gregorio “Gorgoro” Henson, the ultimate “renaissance puppet”, is also the chief songwriter of this Britpop-inspired band. But wait, there’s more! According to their Facebook page, “No doubt, Gorgoro is a puppet on a mission -- to finally find and meet his biological father, Animal of the Muppet Show’s sensational band Dr. Teeth & the Electric Mayhem. Gorgoro is hell-bent on finding his spot in the limelight in order to (somehow, somewhere) get recognition from his estranged father”. Melt my heart, why don’t you? Their song “You Had Your Chance But You Blew It” became my LSS for 2 days. That’s how infectious their songs are. Gorgoro: fun, easy on the ears, and a puppet as front man.
