ziroq And speaking of cultural catharsis what can you
say about a gypsy-rock group formed in LA, led by a Fijian Indian
Marcus Nand who cites Led Zeppelin as a major influence? Bring
it on, I say. Marcus was raised in Andalucia and it sure shows
with his smoky voice replete with genuine emotion and a facility
on acoustic guitar that eschews his formidable technique in favour
of expression. Moving from friendly flamenco rumba-rock to hypnotic
North African rhythms all marked by a charismatic sense of arrangement
and composition their eponymous debut on the Triloka label takes
the listener on a journey through English and Spanish language
flamenco-pop that is genuinely infectious and soulful at the same
time.
