"One of the year's most brilliant debuts in the Colombian independent music scene" Carlos Solano, El Tiempo, 2014, Colombia
"rock-edged blues" Leila Cobo, Billboard, 2014 USA
A deliberately urban sound passing through soul, blues and jazz tinged with rock. In his staging, Fatso, brings winds, strings and a torn edge.
FatsO comes out from "La Distrito Fonica", an outstanding group of eclectic musicians from Bogota, that put Meridian Brothers under lights.
For long five years, Daniel Restrepo, was exploring his own way as an acoustic trio. It was in 2013 that he officially debuted as a sextet at Jazz in The Park Festival in Bogota. The success was so evident that FatsO was invited to be part of all "in The Park Festivals" in Bogota, including Rock in The Park. Since then, fatsO has released the video clip "It's Getting Bad", an album and a bunch of live intimate videos. This is a great act to be seen live and to be listened to!!!
