Tuff Guac

From sixties bubblegum pop to distorted garage rock, Tuff Guac has you covered!

Tuff Guac is the solo project of Rafael Valles Hilario (26). After gaining experience with various garage punk bands in the underground scene, he developed the urge to make more melodic pop music. Thus, the debut album ‘Green and Handsome’ came to life. A reverb-heavy garage pop album packed with catchy sing-alongs. Rafael recorded the record alone in an abandoned house using some instruments, a tape recorder and a handful of microphones.Afterwards, he crawled into the rehearsal room with Wim De Busser (The Colorist Orchestra, Zita Swoon, Helmut Lotti ...), Jasper Suys and Gert-Jan Van Damme (Jerry Lada) and Tuff Guac grew into a live sensation where danceability and rock ‘n’ roll find themselves nicely. With this original mix, Tuff Guac hit the finals of Humo's Rock Rally 2022, among others, and will soon go on a European tour.
