The Imperial Rooster

Biography

Espanola's The Imperial Rooster play an out there mix of all acoustic country, folk, blues, & rock 'n' roll that can only be described as GONZO ROOTS MUSIC. If Nick Cave and Tom Waits had a baby together and that baby covered Johnny Cash songs with the Violent Femmes backing him up but used lyrics written by Hunter S Thompson and William Burroughs then it might sound a little bit like the Rooster.
