 (3 Customer Reviews)
The last country New Traditionalist standing, the tireless George Strait was still churning out solid, roots-conscious fare like TROUBADOUR on a regular basis after more than a quarter-century on the job. The title track casts a wistful look back while declaring the singer's intention to keep forging ahead. Aided by Patty Loveless, Strait sings the praises of Johnny and June on the moving elegy "House of Cash," while "Make Her Fall In Love With Me Song" is the kind of tune that could have been pumping out of a honky-tonk jukebox when Strait was still the new kid on the block. His lifelong love affair with Western Swing gets an airing here on the sprightly Dean Dillon duet "West Texas Town." At an age when some singers might think about slowing down, Strait sounds like he's just picking up speed on TROUBADOUR.

Rolling Stone (p.63) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "TROUBADOUR is up to the usual standards, maybe better. There's witty, swaggering honky-tonk and the requisite hot-fiddle swing number."
Paste (magazine) (p.69) - "[W]ith TROUBADOUR, he throws in a couple of delectable curveballs -- like the Caribbean twinkle of 'River of Love' and the rock edge of 'House of Cash'..."

Monica Joy has been making music for as long as she can remember - first on the piano, then with acoustic guitar, and more recently on African drums. And although she has been writing songs since her teen years, most of her music remained unheard until now.With the release of her first album If Everything is Lost, the spring of 2005 marks a new chapter for Monica's music. "I've always felt fortunate to have music in my life as an outlet, a way of journaling and worshipping and coping. I haven't always felt the need for my music to be heard by anyone other than my 'audience of One', but over the last couple of years, the desire to share it has begun to burn in me. I'm encouraged that God seems to be taking this music that has been ...

Singer, Lyricist, Composer, Dominican folk music researcher, Taíno culture researcher and traveler. Irka Mateo was born in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic from a family of mixed race descendants of Tainos, Africans and Europeans. She chose the Taino as her personal identity. From an early age she was devoted to singing, playing guitar, writing poetry. At 17 she began her world travels. She has lived in United States, Spain, France, England, Brazil and Canada, as well as traveling extensively throughout Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean. During these years, she participated as a singer in various musical projects with Latin Americans, Greeks, Africans and French and was a witness to the emergence of world music in Paris and Madrid. She studied psychology and foreign languages (English, French, Portuguese) in Amherst College, Connecticut, USA, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain and at l'Université d 'Strassburg, France.In Madrid she met Tadeu De Marco, a Brazilian musician, composer and arranger. Together they created a fusion of music from the Caribbean and Brazil, (cha-cha, reggae, gaga, sarandunga, samba, party high afoxe, Baia, maracatu). They also participated in many international jazz festivals an recorded “Tres Americas” for Silence Records, Canada. After traveling around the world Irka felt the need to know her own culture and return to her native country where she spent 10 years immersing her with its folk music, popular religion and Taino culture. There she learned of different folk rhythms and of the messianic movement of Liborio Mateo and his music for healing, as well as the aboriginal way of life in rural communities.These trips led to an audio file of the folk music of these musical expressions: Palos, Palos de San Juan, Mangulina, Carabine, Salve de Villa Mella, Salve de Bani, Salve a la Virgen, ...
