Geckøs

We are thrilled to announce the debut album from Geckøs, the collective spirit of acclaimed songwriter M. Ward, Giant Sand visionary Howe Gelb, and Irish multi-instrumentalist McKowski. Born out of an impromptu recording session that was sparked by an encounter at the wedding of a mutual friend, the project blends the rich flavors of the Southwest with indie folk, Spanish influences, and a touch of Irish mysticism. While initial recordings took place in Tucson, it became a true transatlantic project when the members returned to their hometowns and continued trading ideas. The trio eventually regrouped in studios across Ireland, London, and Bristol, where renowned English producer John Parish mixed multiple tracks. Geckøs’ self-titled debut is steeped in story, spontaneity, and surreal charm, channeling the spirit of three singular voices discovering a new, shared musical language.

A co-release with our coconspirators PIAPTK Recordings, the album will be available everywhere beginning September 26 on limited edition metallic gold LP, transparent red LP, CD, and digital formats.

El Techno is streaming now, along with the previously released single Dance Of The Gecko. In addition to the forthcoming album, the two tracks are available together now on a limited edition 7" release.
