Gonzales—friend, figaro and figurative frère to Feist—is crossing the pond. Fresh from breaking the Guinness World Record for persistent performance (27 hours, 3 minutes, 44 seconds), Gonzo will deliver his choppiest chops to North America on the cusp of Autumn.

If you're scanning for a cheat sheet, or simple summation, this might help frame his portrait: Gonzales collaborates with many musicians like Feist, Peaches, Jamie Lidell and Mocky. I've added one of my favourite videos below.

Here are his dates. Stay tuned for SURPRISE guests and SURPRISE audience.
