The third release from Gizmo builds upon his signature lilting, exotic guitar riffs however instead  of the Tropicalia touches seen on previous tracks, Gizmo now introduces a more Flamenco, finger-picking style on this more pensive, morose offering. Offering us a glimpse into the variety of styles he’s displaying on his album ‘El Dorado’, this is a unique, intoxicating sound as timeless as it is genuinely exciting – not only because Gizmo has played every instrument, engineered, arranged and produced every record he’s released. The young artist has already picked up acclaim from tastemakers such as Daytrotter, CLASH Magazine, Indie Shuffle and Sofar Sounds and with this new release; Gizmo continues to mark his formidable growing reputation.
