​Marvin Etzioni (from the album What’s the Mood in the Country Now? available on Regional Records)
Basing the theme of his recent release on faith in the future, Marvin Etzioni presents What’s the Mood in the Country Now? The album foregoes standing in a genre line, taking its musical cue from country as a territorial landmass, not a style choice. What’s the Mood in the Country Now? has the conscience of Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On, musically matching the original release with the soulful Indie Folk of “Here Comes America”. Marvin Etzioni is the master of Funk shouting out “Cover Your Bamboo” and the master of ceremonies, leading the song-to-ne faithful in song with the jug band sing-a-long “(There’s Gonna Be a) Jubilation”, becoming the classic man with guitar railing against oppression in the title track.
The words of Anais Nin provide a literary texture for non-stop percussive onslaught of “Abide in My Love” as the musicianship of Gustavo Santaolalla gently cradles unification in the closing cut “We Belong in America”. Los Angeles, CA-based Sy Smith joins Marvin on the majority of the tracks on What’s the Mood in the Country Now?, the underground Soul songwriter helping the harmonies to keep rolling on “Wheels of Freedom”, partnering in a rant aimed at our government for “God Bless the Homeless” and half of the male/female voices when she and Marvin Etzioni speak for the human race in “The Last Weapon Left is the Heart”.
