Vinyl LP pressing. 2011 release from the Albuquerque-based Indie outfit. Cervantine is a record that gloriously connects their deep fascination with the Folk and gypsy groups of former Yugoslavia, Greece and Romania with their actual home in the desert plains of the American Southwest. The group’s natural blend of diverse global musical styles with their Indie Rock background lends them the kind of cross-audience appeal enjoyed by bands including Fools Gold, Beirut and Calexico, while their strong sense of musicality and cultural context draws more left-field listeners to them as well. Recorded live at their studio in Albuquerque between two US tours, Cervantine is the vibrant sound of an American band whose geographical and cultural travels bear on their already distinctive music.
