Tempest - Another Dawn (2010)

 

The ninth album from this band from USA.

The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, tambourine, djembe, bass, mandolin, guitars, violins, viola, bodhran, flute, harmonica and vocals.

A guest musician added his keyboards.

This band has released twelve albums so far and I got the last one to review next week. But Another Dawn is my first meeting with this band.

The band plays folk rock. The inspirations is mostly taken from the Scandinavian folk music scene. But there is also some English folk rock here and a lot of American folk rock too.

The emphasis is on folk music and not on rock or prog on this fifty minutes long album.

There are some instrumental parts but they are not that interesting. Most of this album is vocals orientated and based on the simple songs formula.

This is still a decent album and the band sounds like they know what they are doing.

Check out this album if folk rock is your thing.
