INDIO - INCA EP

Indio is : 1. ...the name of a side project of Detroit techno artist John Beltran. A self-titled album was released by the Transmat label of Derrick May in 1999, followed by two EPs. 2. the stage name used by Canadian singer-songwriter Gordon Peterson. He originally formed a band in his early musical career, but split up the band because he felt as if he had to restrict his music and make it conform to the limits and abilities of those specific band members. He would rather choose his own set of band members for each individual track. His only album, an eponymous released in 1989, yielded little success. The most well known and well appreciated track is almost inarguably "Hard Sun", which was covered by grunge idol Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam and Temple of the Dog, in a brief solo project for the Sean Penn movie Into the Wild. Indio's style of music is generally very rhythmic and often uses heavy sets of layered percussion. He is also appreciated amongst his limited fan base as a staggeringly visual and talented lyricist. 3. Argentinian folk duo. Read more on Last.fm.
