   About Before the Rain
Moving between styles, this band is a moving target, but world beats, improvisation and mayhem are a must! They have been together for over ten years, with three CDs; the mellow "Saguaro" (1998), The exploratory "Hitchin' to Santa Fe" (2001), and now the arrival of the CD that truly defines Aggressive World-Beat Jazz, "Tramps and Mystic Revolutionaries!" Their current CD is a montage of many styles, instruments and sound! This CD is currently available from this link at Amazon.com Tramps and Mystic Revolutionaries Page and Tramps and Mystic Revolutionaries on CD Baby. It is also available through Before the Rain on iTunes
