Description
Originally released in 2009 on CD, American Horizon brings together 15 vibrant tracks rooted in Mexican and African American traditions, co-created with David Hidalgo and blues legend Taj Mahal and supported by the Creative Work Fund. Reissued as a deluxe double-LP for the first time, this landmark collaboration now offers the warmth and presence of vinyl to listeners. Drawing from styles ranging from cumbia and Tex-Mex to intimate folk-rock and heartfelt ballads, the album “Detail[s] the migrant worker’s plight,” and “is anchored by tradition but flowers through invigorating rock-blues fusions” (Maximum Ink). Enduring and evocative, American Horizon offers a deeply rooted musical journey of resilience, cultural connection, and creative collaboration.
