Acoustic folk and blues-band vibes with catchy pop melodies and calming vocals – Choca Blues bring optimism and organic musicianship to the stage, with their wonderful new album The Wind.
Featuring acoustic guitars, harmonica, hand rhythms and riding bass, the set-up of the project follows often paired vocals of softly soulful but accessible, relatable tones, through a series of stories and contemplations that feel easy to get on board with.
From the opening title-track The Wind, the band’s sense of togetherness and their ability to form a likable groove with a memorable tune is made clear, and though versatility is crucial – consider the shift to a seductive and mildly gritty, chorus-led Illinois Blues – that ability maintains the strength of their sound. Old Man is another simple but striking highlight for its similar sense of creative character and melodic appeal.
Based out of Guatemala, fourpiece Folk and Americana project Choca Blues let their joy and musicianship fly freely as a band – celebrating the escapism and wonder of creative expression in a way that’s clear and impactful for those seeking a similar sense of comfort.
