Banco De Gaia

Toby Marks (aka Banco De Gaia) is a musician, producer, composer and label owner who has followed his own creativity without compromise. You Are Here, recently released in May 2004, is a powerful album that's hard to listen to sitting down. If the infectious grooves don't get you moving, the messages behind the music will have you taking a stand. Previous Banco de Gaia albums, while all communicating very spiritual ideas, left the meaning of tracks and the album as a whole open to interpretation. You Are Here incorporates much more direct messages about globalization, mass consumerism, and meaningless dance music.
