Coming from the Mediterranean island of Malta, Peklectrick is the name of the studio-based solo project of former dripht guitarist Patrick Galea. The project is an eclectic mix of guitar-driven music with abundant doses of reggae, some blues and a little funk. The music comes wrapped in socially conscious lyrics, a punk rock ethos and a tongue that is firmly stuck in cheek. Surreally speaking, it is the sound of the Clash meeting Beck in Jamaica to discuss the blues over some scotch. The music is what award-winning producer David Vella referred to as ‘so cool it’s almost illegal’.
