History (Edit)

This unique phenomena began supporting ‘Adler’s Appetite’ in Spain Jan 2006! Where they grabbed the attention of the Spanish Rock media and fans alike. The Pistoleros returned by popular demand to support Dog’s D’amour in June, to the fans delight.

The Uk was next to have the treat of the Pistoleros playing a support slot with Canadian rock n rollers Crystal Pistol on their successful Uk tour.

Then Gypsy Pistoleros toured the U.K & Europe twice with Love/Hate, Bang Tango, Kristy Majors then Faster Pussycat, Bulletboys, Enuff ZNuff and as special guests of L.A GUNS

GYPSY PISTOLEROS made their U.S debut as they opened Rocklahoma 12th July 2007 alongside such Glam Rock n Roll legends as Twisted Sister, Poison, Vince Neil, L.A Guns, Bang Tango, Skid Row,Slaughter, Faster Pussycat, Dokken, etc !!!

They returned to the U.S & ROCKLAHOMA 2008 as the only U.K/Spanish group, headlining the Friday night on the second stage!July 11th !!!! And were one of THE bands of the whole Festival with one of the largest crowds!!!!! They repeated this at the South Texas Rock Festival the day after! Gypsy Pistoleros then toured the mid West with support from Dirty Penny, culminating in a triumphant L.A debut at the famed Whisky a Go Go ( Supported by Vains of Jenna , reaffirming there standing in America )

Next up was ROCK THE BAYOU Festival ( Houston, Texas ) where the Pistoleros headlined the Second stage Monday 1st September after Twisted Sister & just before Bret Michaels ! Invited back to the main stage in 2009 after another fantastic reaction!

The new mini album ‘Welcome to the Hotel de la Muerte!’ was the next release ,produced again by Joe Gibb at Mighty Atom Studios,Wales on Bad Reputation Records!

The Revolution continued! GYPSY PISTOLEROS blew away the crowd for a fourth time at their beloved U.S & Rocklahoma Festival 2010 closing Saturday night after ZZTop!!! The reaction was incredible!!!

Update (Edit)

Flamenco-Sleaze-Glam rock band Gypsy Pistolero featuring front man Lee Pistolero has signed with Jamsync Music for the release of DUENDE – Last Of The Pistoleros. Lee is now solo and goes by Gypsy Pistolero.
GYPSY PISTOLEROS have announced the details of lead single and world­wide release dates for their highly anti­cip­ated debut album on Heavy Metal Records.

The album, FOREVER WILD, BEAUTIFUL AND DAMNED! GREATEST HITS VOLUME 1, will rock its way into the UK and Main­land Europe on the 9th April 2012 (via Plastic­head) before land­ing in the US and Canada in May 2012 (Via MVD).

As a taster of what is to come, the March 26 2012 marks the world­wide single release of the Pis­tol­eros’ Flamenco-infused, glammed out rendi­tion of Ricky Martin’s chart hit LIVIN’ LA VIDA LOCA.

With its Eng­lish trans­la­tion ‘Liv­ing the Crazy Life’, this track is an uncan­nily appro­pri­ate way of cap­tur­ing the PISTOLEROS’ wild per­sona – as flaunted across the stages of Rock­lahoma five years run­ning. The group has also swaggered its way into numer­ous sweat­box club shows, notch­ing up a series of gigs includ­ing shows along­side BUCKCHERRY, PAPA ROACH, LA GUNS and ZZ TOP.

The PISTOLEROS host a gig on the 23rd of March at CLUB HELL (Fixxion Ware­house, Skin­ner Street, Wol­ver­hamp­ton) cel­eb­rat­ing their debut HMR release. VERY spe­cial guests, strippers, burlesque per­formers, mid­gets (!)… This gig is not to be missed.
