Take a journey into the musical mind of George Turcotte. But be forewarned! We’re heading for Mars on this one, literally. On December 3rd, Turcotte is poised to release his sophomore release, Mellonta Tauta, in the shop from 10am to 5pm. This is a concept album that follows the bizarre life of a frustrated clan of hillbillies across the universe in a balloon powered space truck – fans of Edgar Allen Poe will understand. The album showcases the Dobro as a featured instrument, and is rife with banjo, mandolin and no electric guitars – a bit of a departure for George.
Also featured on the album are some of our fine instructors. Guests include School Director Kathryn Briggs and teachers Terry Tufts, Tobias Meis, Peter Brown, Victor Maltby, and Katy Maltby.
We’ll be uploading samples over the next few weeks, but please drop by the store for an earful on December 3rd, and beyond…
