The one and only album from this band from Argentina.
The band was a sextet with a lineup of percussion, drums, maracas, bass, guitars, electric piano, organ and vocals.
Some guests added percussion, accordion, cello, violin and keyboards.
Argentina is a country far away from both USA and Great Britain, the two main markets when it comes to music. It still has a great scene. A scene going back to the early 1970s.
Soluna is a spin off band of the Argentina prog band Arco Iris.
Some of the Arco Iris members wanted to do a more folk rock album and the result was this band and album.
Folk rock it is. There is still a lot of progressive rock on this album too and the music is therefore progressive folk rock. That complete with a lot of Latin rock influences and Argentine folk music influences.
The vocals and the vocal harmonies are in Spanish. Both of them are very good. There are indeed a lot of vocal harmonies on this forty minutes long album. The music is pretty gentle and pastoral.
This is a charming album indeed and somewhere between decent and good. This is an album fans of progressive folk rock and or folk rock should check out.
