Here’s a combo worth your attention. Ratko Zjaca plays guitar and Simone Zanchini hits the buttons on the accordion and electronics. Supplemented by Martin Gjakonovski/b and Adam Nussbaum, the mix Cajun, Zydeco, Tango and Bohemian blues in a way that grabs you by the throat. Deep south sound come out on the sinister “Celtico” while slinky blues hit you in your soul on “River S pirit” and “ Days of Old.” They can bop with the best as well, showing some hot grooves on “The Judge Says You are Innocent” and “The Lost Call” while taking you to The Left Bank on “bale Con La Uno.” Funk is the name on “The Clockwork” which features wondrous guitar work and Zanchini hits all the right buttons on “The Easy Whistler.” The only label for this one is “Oh, Yeah!”
