The story of Less Toches began during a very special summer, when the band members met as if by magic. One evening in a park, while sitting on a picnic table playing with friends, vallenato accordionist John Gonzalez heard a unique voice. After a long jam session, John invited his new friend, the Acadian-Mexican poet Jacob Basque, to play with Dani and Lucas. This chance encounter sparked something special, and a new band was born.
We identify only half-jokingly as “the world’s first blackgrass band.” We play old murder-ballads and other spooky traditional folk songs, with some bright and sentimental spots thrown in for contrast. Some days we’re acoustic purists. Some days we like to corrupt traditional folksongs with bits of black metal, ambient, and noise music. We’re trying to make folk music dangerous again.
