VINYL FORMAT. Texas is a graveyard and The Lone Star State is full of ghosts. Once the home of many thousands of military personnel, old bases now stand empty. The only tenants are lizards and snakes. Even the rusted and rotted hulks of planes have been carted off by junk men and souvenir hunters. The roar of the war effort has been replaced by the whisper of the wind. A gentle absence of action. The haunted Americana of Georgia's Horse sounds like it could have come from any of these ghostly deserts.
Their debut album, The Mammoth Sessions sounds like an aftermath of some emotionally violent event that has just left stillness and melancholia in its place. These 13 songs are anchored around the skewed and magnetic vision of singer/songwriter Teresa Maldonado and their brittle and skeletal songs are fleshed out by multi-instrumentalist Tiziano Hernandez (bass/guitars), Brad Thomason (drums) and Melly Rose (cello).
