The Express Rolling Back Into Taipei

Coromandel Express is having its first show in Taipei after taking a brief hiatus for traveling. We're getting back in the swing of things @ Sappho this Saturday. Then, October/November will be quite an active time for us - festivals, clubs, and ... TV!!


We're looking forward to trying out some new material and launching the next phase of our sound! Get ready to groove hard! ;)

Best. Gig. Ever!


Nothing makes more sense than Bossa Nova music at a beach-side café. For the next several weekends, our No More Blues trio (Paige on vocals, Camaron de La Vegas on guitars, myself on a modified percussion/drum set) is chilling out at Il Maré, a lovely place where the front door faces the street but the back door... well, the back door is the beach! Qianshuiwan @ Sanzhi, to be exact. Just 15 min. past Danshui.

If you're around the Taipei area, come check us out @ 3pm. This weekend is a Saturday show (9/18). Then it's Sundays after that throughout September/October.

Enjoy a coffee, beer, desert, or all three along with a killer view. We finish just in time to watch to jump in the water and watch the sun set over the sea. Life doesn't get much better than that!

Much Ado About Drumming

"Good morning, world," Cody murmurs, as enthusiastically as one could be before the requisite morning coffee. "What's it gonna be today? What's on the musical docket?"

"Why don't you play some beats on the new cajon - keep trying to open up the sound on that stiff, freshly-made faceboard," the smooth Puerto Rican accent suggests.
"No, you gotta hit the kanjira - get the trikala happening!" demands the Indian voice with characteristic intensity.
"You know, your groove wasn't swingin' quite right last night. Get on the kit and shed that!" commands the drill sergeant.
"Hey, man. Do you even remember how to play marimba? Now that you have one sitting in your living room, those ii-V-I's could use some work," suggests the lovable hippie jazzer.

Man! Such is the percussionist's dilemma. Schizophrenia reigns! Too much to do to be blogging. But I'll keep trying and posting thoughts here as they come:)
