Tri-gantics, The
Fingerlickin'
The 2nd album by the Austrian band around Martin Telfser (ex-Mars Attacks). The 14 tracks, all original compositions, vary stylistically between uptempo blues with slide guitar and harp, jump blues and rock'n'roll, but there are also musical excursions into the early 1960s. The power trio around guitarist and singer Martin is completed by Alex on double bass and Bende on drums. The international guest musicians, Barbara Clifford (USA, backing vocals), David Karlinger (harp; from the DeadBeatz) and Pat Madison (sax, backing vocals), help to make the sound even fuller and more varied. The Palac Crown Studio in Austria with its high-quality "vintage equipment" has proven to be the perfect choice for an assertive yet warm sound.
