Cara del Gato is a band from Lake Butler, Florida, which is 20 minutes north of Gainesville. Our musical style ranges from Surf punk to Indie pop to Indie rock to Twee.
Band/artist history
Cara del Gato has only been around for a year or so (starting in 2003). It originated as just Waylon Thornton doing acoustic lo-fi stuff in his bedroom, but has developed into a full band. The lo-fi bedroom pop roots will not be forgotten, though.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
We play wherever we can. Playing live is one of the most fun things to do.
