Owlet Nightjar Wellington, New Zealand

Owlet Nightjar recommends:
Rugged and raw with such depth, purity and emotional intensity. True soul music. The passing of brother Dave (a.k.a. Rawiri, Gnibi) was one of the major inspirations for The Regenerative Principle.

Swampy, stonking, groovy, psychedelic, hypno-gypsy, neo-spiritual blues from dutch/kiwi powehouse trio My Baby. I have well and truly smashed this album! Their phenomenal debut. Love these guys.
