Glorietta

New collaboration Glorietta have released a video for their song “Heatstroke”.  Glorietta  was born out of a desire to collaborate with friends.  The brainchild of Matthew Logan Vasquez (Delta Spirit),  he joined with his friends Noah Gundersen, Kelsey Wilson (Wild Child), David Ramirez, Grammy award winner Adrian Quesada (Brownout, Black Pumas), and Jason Robert Blum.  They came together over the course of nine-day recording session in a rented house in Glorietta, New Mexico – just outside of Santa Fe.  Mid way through the sessions the group was joined by a guest appearance from Nathaniel Rateliff who drove all through the night to join the party.  “We chose Santa Fe because it was isolated enough to where it would feel like we were at camp” said Vasquez, “the only requirements were that the house had vaulted ceilings and a Jacuzzi.”

The players were all connected in one-way or another, some of them old friends, some of them meeting for the first time when they arrived. The days were long, with the tape running constantly as the players brought ideas for songs in various stages of completion to their new family of collaborators. The result is a their self-titled debut record, which is out now.  A beautiful mix of voices from six band leaders that fit perfectly together like a low-fidelity puzzle.
