I saw this group last night at Altar Bar, having never heard them before. I was so impressed with them I had to write about them. This show was such an eclectic mix from such far reaching cultures. I heard deep rooted influences from eastern European gypsy folk to traditional mariachi horn harmonies. I hope you were one of the people who didn't miss this sold out show.
