Our track money... with the swearing taken out especially for the radio... so go on Mr DJ - play us on your show!!

Money (radio edit)

The same as the EP version essentially, the lengthy intro has just been removed!!

Electricity (radio edit)

This track was always intended to be the B-Side of the Hurts single, but after it's popularity at our live shows over the past few months we have decided that it will be a Double-A-Side now - the track has already booked it's place on our forthcoming album too. After the re-work of Hurts, we have continued the use of multiple layers of backing vocals and the inclusion of strings. We think it is a pretty solid sound, so thought you might want an early preview of what's to come! This is a very rough, un-mastered mix, but please leave comments and let us know what you think of this brand new track!

Never Lived Demo (web preview)

Hurts has been hand picked by us to be our next single, you may be familiar with the song from our EP 'Every Boy Dreams', but in true Fuego style we have given this a bit of a re-work!  - there is a video in production to go with it, and it features on the Odd Stories 'London Underground' Compilation as well as NHR's own 'Hawk's Nest Volume 1' Compilation. This is a sneek at where we are going with our album tracks and how we are trying to establish 'our sound'. We hope you like it, and please leave comments on the track so we know if we are heading the right way or not! Cheers guys!!

About

Hailing from London, England, The Fuegos are a classic rock four piece with a modern twist. Using the tried and tested combination of drums, bass, guitar and keys the drawling yet harmonious vocals and effect soaked melodies pushed by growling bass give a slightly unexpected and contemporary sound.
The band have been together for just over 12 months and have already enjoyed extensive play on internet radio stations and have garnered success in a number of ‘battle of the bands’ style competitions, most notably having made the final 40 shortlist for SupaJam’s FIB Unsigned contest this summer and placing second in the world renowned Emergenza Festival.
With one major studio recording under thier belt the band have been focusing on thier live performances and have enjoyed stage time at some of London’s most prestigious venues including The Electrowerkz, Camden Dingwalls, and the Kentish Town HMV Forum as well as some live-to-air radio sessions.

Testimonies & Reviews

“I recorded The Fueogos for a Live to Air Broadcast on Recharged Radio. The band were amazing, on time , cooprative, as we only had 2 hours to load in, mic up, get a sound and go to air… And then they thrashed their instruments to within an inch of there lives, a great band chock full of Old school energy and modern day tunes that are hard to forget.” – Steve Honest, Hackney Road Recording Studio

“The Fuegos present driving synth backed rock n’ roll. Recent single, “M0N£Y”, made number 1 on the UK Unsigned Chart and big shows at venues including Kentish Town Forum and Camden Dingwalls have cemented them into the premier league of new alternative talent in London.” – Andy Quirk, Hits of The Near Future

“The Fuegos are the sort of band that you can rely on in a pinch. We like them as they’re reliable, they have good hair and get up for breakfast radio slots even though they went out the previous night…As for their music, it’s been described as good fun with an anarchist edge.” – Jordan Thomas, Recharged Radio

“…Against The World is an accomplished and exciting track that promises to be fantastic both live, and accompanying an album which is sure to carry a party-for-the-cool-kids vibe throughout.” – Keiron Heavens, Wildfire Music Review
