Casa de Chihuahua is a New York and Virginia based scumbilly band. Together since 2/11/06 the Chihuahuas have played around the United States and are looking to cover more ground. Zack Orion(voice, guitar), Morgan O’Kane(banjo, voice) and Pigpen(washtub bass) started as the Blown Out Boot Boys at a See Skwat show and later ran into Nico Ramirez(voice, washoard), who dazzled all with her voice, presence and artistic talent. At Monkeyclaus studios the band recorded “Amat Victoria Curam” later that year with the help of Bobby St. Ours on the fiddle and vocals and Raphael Wintersberger on the accordian. Bobby was enthralled with the tunes, emotion, and his new tattoo from Nico so much he insisted that his legendary “Dirty Bird” tour bus be guided henceforth by the whims and fates of the chihuahuas. They are currently setting up a tour of the southern u.s. of a. in the spring from Virginia to Los Angeles and back. The Chinese character 闻, prounounced “wén” means to hear or sniff at. Keep your noses in the air and your ear to the ground for their next performance.
