Primitive Music of the World
Sangita
GUITAR PLAYER Magazine described their music as "Wonderfully melodic, expertly
layered, masterfully interwoven, luscious yet rootsy."
And their debut release "Almeria" was chosen as "#4 ALBUM OF THE YEAR" at nationally syndicated Echoes Radio.
Montgomery and Ellen achieve a rich and inviting sound on "Sangita" with the use of a wide variety of traditional wooden folk instrument s such as: Irish and Greek bouzouki, sitar, dilruba, ruan, oud, gobijen, jal tarang, dotara, tenor banjo, harmonium, acoustic guitar, violin, upright bass, and other instruments. Contemporary Americana and Old World styles are merged and blended together into something new and beautiful. The arrangements and orchestration are sophisticated and dynamic. Produced with what can only be described as a truly golden tone, "Sangita" is a marvelously cohesive offering.
