Carlos Drouet is a singer from New Jersey. Having taught himself how to sing working for tips on public transit buses as a kid in Ecuador, he has been singing and playing guitar in a handful of local cover bands for the past few years, most notably Faith in Chaos.
In today’s episode, Carlos tells nightmare stories from working with a former guitarist who would curse band members out onstage, stop songs and start them over if any mistake was made, cancel gigs hours before they’re scheduled to start, cancel gigs in the middle of said gig as they’re performing, and much more on GIG NIGHTMARES.
You can catch Carlos with Faith in Chaos at their next gig on April 12, 2025 at O’Leary’s Publik House in Jersey City, NJ.
