Kid Congo & the Pink Monkey Birds

Kid Congo Powers hardly requires any introduction, but for the uninitiated, he is a founding member of The Gun Club and guitarist for legendary psycho-billy purveyors, The Cramps as well as Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds. Not many can say they have played with three of the coolest bands of all time but Kid Congo can. He’s collaborated with everyone there is to collaborate with and even been immortalised in song by “Suicide’s” Alan Vega.
