A side project for jazzy singer/songwriter
Norah Jones, the indie rock-leaning trio
El Madmo feature
Jones on guitar and vocals alongside bassist/vocalist
Daru Oda and drummer
Andrew Borger of
Jones' backing group the Handsome Band. Theatrical and often humorous (garishly glam makeup, wigs, and costumes are de rigueur), each member of
El Madmo has also taken a stage name, with
Oda as
El,
Jones as
Maddie, and
Borger as
Mo -- hence the band name.
El Madmo released their self-titled debut album on Team Love in 2008. ~ Matt Collar
