Inspired by the global funk sounds that came out of Africa and the Middle East in the 1970s, The Bombillas offer their unique take while forging a sound that is distinctly their own. This Los Angeles quartet’s s debut LP utilizes vintage keyboards, lap steel, drums, bass, and guitar that come together in a melting pot of instrumental grooves and sonic colors. This LP Features seven original compositions and two covers. One being the Ethiopian classic “Sintayehu” by Hailu Mergia, and the other, a newly rediscovered diggers' favorite, “Dance of Maria” by Elias Rahbani, arranged with some surprises not found in the original, keeping in line with The Bombillas' fresh approach to past inspirations.
