Tequila Mockingbird Orchestra - Mountains on Fire
The acoustic ensemble has wandered from the underground of bohemian Victoria, in Canada's lush west coast, to a new, refined sound crafted by years of constant performing and touring together. Though drawing on flamenco flourishes learned in Spain, on African percussion, on bluegrass and other roots music from across the Americas, TMO has cycled through far-flung influences and youthful forays into sounds from all over, finding new vistas of creativity that bring them closer to their own beginnings, to the people and places that have shaped them. Friends and family, ancestors and wild characters are all honoured on Follow My Lead, Lead Me to Follow, the band's third and most mature studio effort, with a sound that's distinct, earthy, and solid.
