\"Album<\/a>

Album art by Michele Mikesell<\/p><\/div>\n

D\u00c3\u00bao del Sol<\/a> is Tom Farrell (guitar\/vocals) and Javier Orman (violin\/vocals), and they are from Los Angeles, via Chicago and Uruguay. <\/p>\n

hello Kaleidoscope<\/a><\/i> is their first full length record, and features assistance from Oscar \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcLuminoso\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 Rospide (accordion), Cameron Stone (cello), Derek Stein (cello) and Andrew Bush (percussion) on some tracks.<\/p>\n

Their sound is an awesome intoxicating swirl of classical forms and world music (mostly Latin) rhythms, and is kind of like a fine red wine: you have to do the aural equivalent of letting it breathe, i.e. just sit back and listen to it. Allow yourself to be swept up and away.<\/p>\n

These are a few of my favorite tracks:<\/p>\n

Never The Same River Twice<\/i>, in which the violin sings a song of longing and adventure, accompanied by a cello and guitar that sound like the steady movement of water.
