The Music Machine (Translated from Serbian)
A New York-based band, Esquela, is a relatively newer act, under the indie roots/americana umbrella. Firstly, they have discographicaly started with “The Owl Has Landed” album, and a few months ago, they are hailing with actuelle product, a CD entitled “Are We Rolling?”. And, a simply answer is – yes. Esquela in best possible way communicate with rock/americana/country rock/roots music variants, and also with 70′s flavours and additionals as well. A soulful voice of singer Rebecca Frame characterize an atmosphere in its songs, penned mostly by bass player Chico Finn. In many aspects a 6 piece New yorkers reminds on known 70′s acts, but psychologically they also elegantly captures a standards of our time. “Are We Rolling?” are consists of mainly equalizing materials, and one “classic” – “Tossin’ And Turnin’”.
