In a nutshell: From Jack Johnson’s Brushfire label comes this collection of ten gloriously infectious tunes that cruise through the classic American soundscape from roots rock to blues and jazz with a hint of 70’s disco. ‘Animal Liberation Orchestra’ convened in an old barn overlooking their hometown of Santa Barbara and recorded an album which will transport the listener to a California dreamscape where a dusty old school authentic groove rules the day. All exceptionally talented musicians, ALO sound like a mélange of Steely Dan, Dave Matthews and a pastoral Paul Weller.
