For decades, they've created the kind of multicultural Americana that reaches far beyond America itself, blending their favorite stateside sounds — including rock & roll, country, and R&B — with Tex-Mex twang, Cuban rhythms, Jamaican ska, and other Latin influences. The exploration continues with Moon & Stars, a progressive album that finds Raul Malo and company continuing to push the envelope, exploring the outer orbits of an organic, otherworldly sound that remains entirely their own.
Everything comes full circle with the album's final track, "Turn Yourself Around." Heavily inspired by the Beatles, the song was recorded on Ringo Starr's birthday at Nashville's Blackbird Studios. For Malo, it represents a blending of past and present — as a commitment to whatever the future may hold.
"The Beatles were so influential in this band's musical development," he says, "and a song like 'Turn Yourself Around' couldn't have happened at any other time than right now. We've spent years establishing our own thing, our own sound, our own community. Now, we feel like it's OK to venture out and have some fun, too. If you're not going to do it today, then when? And who better to do fun stuff than us?"
To the moon and back, The Mavericks are still exploring.
