Tuff Guac plays the Netherlands with "I Want It Too"

Tuff Guac, the Antwerp-born brainchild of multi-instrumentalist Rafael Valles Hilario, returns with a fresh burst of bubblegum grit and analog swagger. Known for sliding effortlessly between sixties candy-coated pop and raucous garage rock ’n roll, Tuff Guac has carved out a sound that’s as playful as it is sharply crafted.

With a brand-new album on the horizon, Rafael now unveils his latest creation: I Want It Too. Recorded and performed entirely by Rafael in his analog Antwerp studio, the record is a fizzy, sticky, irresistibly catchy collection of songs with a vintage glow and a delightfully cheeky edge—calling to mind the cow-gum, bubble-blowing wildness celebrated in recent reviews.

On stage, Tuff Guac transforms into a full-throttle live force featuring Wim De Busser (King Dick), Jasper Suys, and Gert Jan Van Damme (Jerry Lada). Together, they turn Rafael’s twisted pop sparkle into a sweaty, joyful, high-energy explosion. And now, they’re bringing that energy to the Netherlands for three shows you won’t want to miss.
