Doom Flamingo
w/s/g Cal Humberto
“80’s guilty pleasure vampire stripper rock”
“We’re just here to make people dance”
Doom Flamingo is amulti-headed synth rock sexy-tet with a Jekyll and Hyde element to the songwriting. Top Gun guitar riffs and Miami Beach poolside lounge-vibes, are all at once contrasted with eerie dark synth soundscapes reminiscent of old John Carpenter films.
Doom Flamingo came together organically through friendships and past collaborations in their hometown of Charleston, South Carolina and features dynamic vocals alongside a powerhouse of musicians and soaring instrumentation.
