Mendrugo is a beautiful collaboration between musicians from different cultures who share a deep love for their respective musical traditions and an irreverent, and irresistible, sense of fun. There should be more records made like this.
Listen to ‘Emboniga’ by Mendrugo, a trio led by the infamous Hermanos Herrero – Víctor & José Luis – along with Josephine Foster. A song about the rural tradition of muck splattering….a goat deterrent used in olive groves.
The songs on ‘No More Lamps in the Morning’ are, for all their apparent restraint, some of the most compelling and haunting of Josephine Foster’s career.
Josephine Foster’s new album ‘Blood Rushing’ makes for some pretty additive folk-rock-pop melodies with top-notch musical performances all round. Led by one of the freshest front woman of our time.
Listen to and download Josephine Foster’s new track ‘Child of God’ which is taken from her forthcoming album ‘Blood Rushing’ due for release on 17th September on Fire Records.
Perlas is the second record from Josephine Foster & the Victor Herrero Band and continues their poetic rearrangements of traditional Spanish songs, bringing more Spanish sunshine into our lives.
