Title Unknown Track

Citay comes our way from San Francisco, focusing on baroque, lilting and sometimes bombastic acoustic-based music that definitely harks back to Black Sabbath circa Volume 4, Led Zeppelin, Roy Harper, early Heart, and early Queen among other influences. Their self-titled release on the Important label displayed brilliantly how a band can evoke classic 70's rock without succumbing to ironic posturing, combining 12-string, mandolin, organ, and occassional Thin Lizzy-inspired electric leads into a gorgeous, and surprisingly original concoction. The band today: Jesse Reiner - guitar, Warren Huegel - drums, Adria Otte - guitar, Tahlia Harbour - vocals, glockenspiel, percussion, Diego Gonzalez - Bass, Julie Napolin - Keyboards, flute, vocals, guitar, Ezra Feinberg - guitar, vocals. Thanks to Gil and the band! More info at Citay's website, also Important Records. (http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/19821)
