Praised as “America’s greatest live dance band & one of the best touring acts of our era,” The Mavericks are back with their new album, Moon & Stars.
For decades, they've created the kind of multicultural Americana that reaches far beyond America itself, blending their favorite stateside sounds — including rock & roll, country, and R&B — with Tex-Mex twang, Cuban rhythms, Jamaican ska, and other Latin influences. The exploration continues with Moon & Stars, a progressive album that finds Raul Malo and company continuing to push the envelope, exploring the outer orbits of an organic, otherworldly sound that remains entirely their own.
Rolling Stone states, “The Mavericks are capable of doing everything from rock & roll to Tex-Mex to jazz & soul...a breathtaking collective that can do anything — everything, really — better than the rest...The big band sound of the...wildly eclectic group...is an earthy but globetrotting place...[It’s impossible] not to get up and dance.”
