Thoughts on the Tequila Mockingbird Orchestra :

These young guys from Victoria did an excellent job of headlining one of our recent multi-disciplinary cabaret shows. It was sold out, and they rocked the party.

… their infectious stage presence is an irresistible assault of crazed gypsy-ska-folk-grass mayhem

… they take your favorite tradition ... and then, playing it with precision and intensity, use it as a rhythm stick to alternately tickle you, and beat you with unrelenting pulse.

… steeped in a variety of traditions - from a number of parts of the world – these immensely talented young men proceed to use their imaginations to grab you by the ears and play you a series of songs you have both always known and never heard before.

… these guys are a traveling party. Both your feet and your smile muscles will get a workout.

Get ready for the mosh pit. I dare you not to dance.

Catch them now in a small club before you have to buy scalpers tickets to see them in in a big arena. You'll be able to tell your friends you caught them on the way up.
