Mosquito Cabaret – River King
Mosquito Cabaret - River King |
Release Date: Out Now
It’s no surprise to see Gogol
Bordello high up in the list of influences of Virginia collective Mosquito
Cabaret as this single, ‘River King’, has that gypsy vibe from the very first accordion
note and rusty cymbal trill. Soon enough, that familiar bouncing rhythm kicks
in and the dramatic, moustachioed vocals of a circus ringmaster. This kind of
music can be heard through the ages and across multiple cultures but wherever
it is heard it will incite dancing and good times in all those who hear it so
it’s always worth pausing to appreciate a timeless and lament filled piece of folk
music.
