Global Groove ft. Fuselaje & FauxMenco

Global Groove is a new monthly series hosted by Fuselaje at Cafe Nine that features world music bands from all corners of the globe. Join us for the first installment, which features a set by flamenco-metal rebels FauxMenco as well as a set by Fuselaje.

FauxMenco

FauxMenco is an attitude - it blends flamenco fandom with energy, resulting in fiery instrumental compositions that owe as much to metal as they do Paco de Lucia. After a raucous performance at the 2025 Zihuatanejo International Guitar Festival, one fan called them “flamenco meets Tool.” 

Catherine Capozzi and Rafi Sofer released their debut EP, Speed X Volume = FauxMenco, in May of 2025. 

Fuselaje

High-energy worldbeat ensemble based in New Haven, CT, blending the twang and reverb of surf rock, the kinetic energy of ska, and the Afro-Latin rhythms of cumbia with psychedelic grooves and punk rock swagger.
