Wild Rumpus is the latest musical wizard's brew from "Legendary Left-field Guitarist" Gary Lucas — who here joins forces with his longtime friend and collaborator Colleen 'Cosmo' Murphy (a/k/a DJ Cosmo) to create a wild ass-shaking rumpus in the electronica and dance field with their first musical utterance, their new 12" vinyl EP "Musical Blaze-Up", out 5/29/07 on Cosmo's own Bitches Brew label.

An astonishing mix of electronica, dub and country, it's like nothing you've ever heard!!
Gary first started collaborating with Cosmo in midnight raves in the Manhattan 14th Street meat-market district with legendary DJ's the late Adam Goldstone and Perry Brandston (a/k/a The Departure Lounge)...the duo went on to play a whole series of Bacardi sponsored raves last year in London, India, and Romania...and are playing soon as the Wild Rumpus Soundsystem at London's Cargo on June 2nd and at the Brussells Klinkende Munt Festival July 7th — don't miss them live, as Gary Lucas take his electric guitar to interstellar heights over the killer beats and samples courtesy of Cosmo...

Wild Rumpus' new single "Musical Blaze-Up" was picked on iTunes UK as Editor's Choice "Best of Store" — alongside new music by Prince, Gwen Stefani, Crowded House and Happy Mondays; read the press release here.
