Official Biography The Locos
PIPI (VOICE)
My name is Ricardo ...
but most people know me as Pipi. It is possible that many of you already know me by my step-by Ska-p. For those who do not know me will tell you that I have 10 years as a second singer and showman of Ska-p. In which I participated in the recording and creation in 5 of 6 albums released and where the visual scenery of the spectacle of Ska-p in hundreds concert, it was my responsibility.
Over the years Ska-P remained at a fairly decent level nationally and internationally, sending a clear message to thousands and thousands of young people, which, in most cases, we have brought home the life of a more positive and supportive manner with the most weak and needy, denouncing all those situations that seemed unfair.
This time, THE CRAZY is a project of mine in which I embark with enthusiasm and desire, a great challenge for me as a solo singer and composer of most of the issues. With a mix of ska and melodic punk-rock, which is what I do and what I enjoy on stage. Where staging and the party for everyone, is guaranteed.
In this madhouse I'm accompanied by a great people, some great musicians and of course "crazy", with which, without their help, this would be almost impossible.
I hope you enjoy this madness called THE CRAZY. For my part, enthusiasm and energy, is guaranteed. SANTI
