Con Todo El Mundo

Description

Formed ofLaura Leeon bass,Mark Speeron guitar, andDonald “DJ” Johnsonon drums; globetrotting Texan trioKhruangbinpresent their second albumCon Todo El Mundo. Whereas their 2015 debutThe Universe Smiles Upon Youwas influenced by ’60s and ’70s Thai cassettes and compilations of southeast Asian pop, rock and funk,Con Todo El Mundohops east over India to take inspiration in similarly under discovered funk and soul sounds of the Middle-East, particularly from Iran.Laura Leeexplains the album’s title: “My grandpa would always ask me Como me quieres?’ (how much do you love me’?), and he’d only ever accept one response. Con todo el mundo’ (With all the world).” ThroughoutCon Todo El Mundo,Laura Lee’smelodic low-end theory, Mark’s lyrical, free-role guitar lines, and DJ’s ever-steady, ever-ready backbeat form something greater than their parts. A vibe-synchronous soul-unit travelling the planet, honing their craft, absorbing the sights, sounds and feels from cultures across the globe, processing them through theKhruangbinfilter and gifting the result…with all the world.
