[DID NOT ATTEND: April 14, 2022] Gustaf / Pedazo De Carne Con Ojo
I saw Gustaf open for Idles and they were weird and wonderful and someone I definitely wanted to see live again–preferably headlining. They have a very late 1980’s punk aesthetic with spoken words and random sounds. Plus a lot of humor. I was really excited for this show. But by the tuime it came around, having misse da whole bunch of shows that I was really looking forward to, I wound up blowing off this one as well.
Shame, really.
Pedazo De Carne Con Ojo is the project of Steven Perez, a Philadelphia musician with sincere love for hip hop, poetry, punk and hardcore, pop, R&B, salsa, bachata, merengue, and even more. Perez has lived in Philly since 2016, writing, playing punk and indie, and he started releasing solo material under the Pedazo moniker in 2019 after years of struggling with doubts about sharing his own music. Pedazo is a kaleidoscopic project, pinned on samples from past recordings of pop and merengue, salsa, bachata and other styles of Caribbean music, all of which Perez heard in his family’s home in Florida growing up.
