Review:
Here's a sweetly kitschy excursion into 60's Cambodian Pop. Lead singer Chhom Nimol, comes from a musical dynasty, and her strong delivery and ease in front of the camera make for obvious star quality. But it was brothers Zac and Ethan Holzman who had the dream of putting together a band that would use the psychedelic music they had fallen in love with on a trip to Cambodia. Bass player Senon Willams was equally intrigued with the idea and volunteered bass parts. When they spotted Nimol singing in a local hot spot called the Dragon House, they knew they had found their missing piece. The result is a mad mélange recalling James Bond movies, Pulp Fiction and the Shirelles. — CalabashMusic.com |
