MOLOTOV JUKEBOX have announced that their second album Tropical Gypsy — supported by a UK tour — will be released via Pause For Effect Records on 15th April 2016.
The album demonstrates a tumultuous whirlwind of Latin influenced horns, accordion and violin – all closely bound together over guitar, bass and drums by the infectious vocals of musician and actress, Natalia Tena.
Incorporating newly found sounds collected firsthand on a tour of South America last year, the band has added flavors of samba and Colombian cumbia to their existing Balkan influences.
Famous for their fierce ‘n’ fiesty performances around the globe in both English and Spanish, none of undeniable live energy of the group was allowed to escape during recording.
