Gnarls Barkley in Silver Spring

Gnarls Barkley is an American duo formed in Atlanta in 2003 by singer CeeLo Green and producer Danger Mouse. They make soul, funk, hip-hop, rock and psychedelic music, and debuted with the single “Crazy” and the 2006 album St. Elsewhere. “Crazy” won the Grammy Award for Best Urban/Alternative Performance, while St. Elsewhere won Best Alternative Music Album; the duo followed it with The Odd Couple in 2008. Gnarls Barkley made their live debut at California’s Coachella festival in April 2006, dressed as characters from The Wizard of Oz. Film-inspired costumes remained part of their stage presentation at later 2006 performances, including Wireless Festival and a concert at London’s Hammersmith Apollo.
