about

#157 in the Need To Know Badass Blues Instrumental Series, What The Actual Fucking Fuck, features Bay Area comrade and Fantastic Negrito guitarist, Tomas Salcedo. I don't know about you, but I find myself asking this question more and more as time goes on, and as is almost always the case, music is where I find the answer or at the very least, the refuge.
A little about Tomas, the son of a gigging folk musician mother and a classical pianist father, Tomas left Richmond Virginia for California at 18 years old and quickly found his place on the scene. While touring the Northern Hemisphere with prog band Antioquia, he began the practice of busking wherever and whenever he could and as fate would have it, one of these busking adventures led to meeting his future bandmate and collaborator, Fantastic Negrito. By 2014 Tomas and Negrito were officially a band, in 2015, they won NPR's Tiny Desk Contest, and as they say, the rest is history, international touring, three Grammys, etc... Well, if you're seeking refuge or just a few good moments of fuzzy, funky, blues rock, I hope you stop and find it here. Enjoy!
