Brazz Tree: “Quest”

Filed under: Music Reviews   

Acoustic guitar, violin and tabla carry this agreeable mixed-ethnicity ren-fair folk, Mazz Swift’s muscular warrior-princess vocals constricting themselves around Celtic, C&W and incidental Middle Eastern by turns. “Ghost,” one of the more noteworthy pieces, begins with a lonesome Civil-War-battlefield fiddle fit for a PBS documentary, while “Return to My Town” lays some intriguing ad hoc percussion underneath Irish-jig grog-house. Order at Tower Records
