¡Bastardos!

Blues Traveler

Grit-flecked alternative rock produced by Wilco's Jay Bennett. A denser, more cynical evolution of their signature harmonica-led sound.

It's Blues Traveler but with that crunchy, experimental Wilco-style production that makes everything feel a bit more urgent.

A restless and slightly cynical alternative rock record that trades sunny jams for late-night textures.

Dusk saturates this record far more than the artist's norm.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The aggressive, almost industrial harmonica distortion that kicks off the opening track
The transition into the expansive, psychedelic jam that closes out the six-minute finale
The way the vocal harmonies on Amber Awaits provide a sudden pop sweetness against the gritty guitars
