Spectrum Trio News
Debut Album Review In The Onion “Anyone who lives in Madison knows that some people just can’t be trusted with those nifty foreign hand drums. The members of Spectrum Trio are a refreshing exception. The band culls together six compelling Afro-Latin rhythm explorations on its new self-titled CD, celebrated at this show. In addition to fusing African and Latin percussion with drum kits, all three members tackle a lot of instrumental and vocal duties, from the elegant synth lines that lead “Cyber Songo” to the three-part vocal incantations of “Olorun,” “Ogun,” and “Baba Fururu.” Thanks to a well-informed grasp of influences that span from West Africa to Brazil, Spectrum Trio’s one of the most inventive and resourceful local albums to come out in recent years.” - the Onion Click here for another review by the A.V.
