He plays with local act Trashcan Fires who are amaaaaazing. A MAZE ZING! Bunky's trumpet player, Robert Ackley just joined forces with the fires so I can't wait to see what we are in store for!!!
"I am
Hyperpotamus and I make a'cappella music, that
simple, with four microphones, a loop station pedal and gallons of
water.
After being involved in a number of bands as a drummer and piano
player, I decided to ditch musical instruments altogether and go my own
way. What I left behind were bloodsucking labels, abusive rehearsal
space rent, impossible transportation of bass drums and cymbals in
unwelcoming geography, and lumbago. Freed, I started to rehearse my
vocal compositions in the undgerground metro stations of Madrid; just 6
months later I was singing in front of 1400 people in Joy Eslava, one
of Madrid's largest venues. I now self-release my debut album
"Largo Bailón",
a sonic-artisan craft in which the only instrument I use is my own
voice, and all this with hardly any promotional fanfare other than good
old word to mouth."
