From the cobbled streets of Paris (circa 1920) to a dusty wagon train across Romania. From gluttony on the high seas, to the hunger of Americana folklore, we've hitched our way across a century and more. We have brought back with us an acoustic revelry of uproarious instrumentals, swooning ballads, and an intoxicating live performance for young and old alike.
"Over the past couple years, there has emerged here in Austin a tight knit community of Pre-Folk players that have been upending the city’s sound with wild Appalachian stomps and Old World odes. Congealed behind the infamous, still occurring Secret Shows, groups like the McMercy Family Band, The Electric Mountain Rotten Apple Gang, That Damned Band, and Wax Museum Pandemonium have helped create an impressive community of wild stringers that dig well below the roots of their influences to unearth a wild and cathartic music that is at once traditional and brazenly progressive in execution. Among the forefront of this crop is Wino Vino, an octet that unleashes ribald gypsy anthems that melds Balken flair with fervent energy and attitude as their stellar musicianship brings the Old World anachronistically to bear on the modern." -Austin Sound (austinsound.net)
