“The Mavericksare capable of doing everything from rock & roll to Tex-Mex to jazz & soul… a breathtaking collective that can do anything – everything, really – better than the rest. … The big band sound of the …wildly eclectic group …is an earthy but globetrotting place…[It’s impossible] not to get up and dance.” –Rolling Stone

Already known for theirdistinctive and eclectic Americana / Roots fusion of Alternative & Outlaw Country, Rock, Blues, R&B and Tejano/Tex-Mex influences, The Mavericks quite appropriately recorded the tracks of“Moon & Stars”across the country inBlackbird Studio (Nashville, Tennessee), Frogville Studios (Santa Fe, New Mexico) and Dockside Studio (Maurice, Louisiana).The result is a long-awaited album that instantly invokes both a timeless feel of a classic Mavericks release that will fit seamlessly among their most revered career work, while once again challenging genre conventions and pushing the boundaries of their melting pot sound ever forward.

Watch for additional singles from“Moon & Stars”to be released in late March and April, with THE MAVERICKS already giving live previews of select songs in their ongoing live touring and the band’s April/May tour throughout Europewith many more dates to follow throughout the year(see all announced dates below).

“The Mavericks do what precious few of their contemporaries can… A band conversant in country, jazz, pop and Latin-flavored rhythms, finely honed by its relentless dedication to touring… Raul Malo and his bandmates had just spent about 80 minutes delivering one of their trademark performances packed with fire, feeling and funkiness… Throughout, the Mavericks were reliably kinetic and locked tighter than a bank vault… [and] Malo’s luscious voice wrapped around bilingual lyrics, a riveting anchor amid the musical maelstrom…and the ecstatic howl from the crowd crystallized the night in a single word, repeated at high volume: “More! More! MORE!” …The only true disappointment about any Mavericks gig is that it has to end at some point. After all, if you can sustain such pleasure indefinitely, why stop?

RAUL MALO – TOUR DATES

“Listening toRaul Malo sing transcends the aural experience. The leader of the Mavericks and a genre-bending solo artist, Malo possesses a voice that vibrates through a listener’s entire core — to say nothing of what it does on an emotional level. Equal parts Orbison and Pavarotti, Malo makes a case for himself as the greatest singer working in roots music –Rolling Stone
