[Classic Number] Gigolo Aunts – That’s Where I Find My Heaven from Flippin’ Out, 1994
From the band’s 2014 reunion show
Remember it from Dumb and Dumber? Formed way way New York in a town called Potsdam, they began as Sniper in 1981. A name change to Gigolo Aunts in 1986 (after the Syd Barrett song, “Gigolo Aunt”, from his 1970 album, Barrett) helped them become popular within the Northern New York music scene for their stellar live performances featuring the close harmonies of the Hurley brothers and Gibbs. By the summer of 1987 the band re-located to Boston. By 1990, they were on the map, playing the Rock & Roll Rumble that year with the likes of Slaughter Shack, Talking To Animals, Green Magnet School, Zug Zug, and The Immortals,
They toured with the likes of Suede and the Cranberries on their first major US tour and a tour of Japan. Later with The Wallflowers and Counting Crows.
