New Mexico string band Lone Pinon recorded the stirring, infectious Hot Carne Seca in rural Eunice, Louisiana with GRAMMY-winner Joel Savoy (Steve Earle, John Fogerty, Linda Ronstadt, T Bone Burnett, HBO's Treme) producing. With fiddles, upright bass, guitars, accordions, vihuela, and bilingual vocals, they play a wide spectrum of New Mexican traditional music - The album sees more of a vocal focus than past albums and mixing recent traditions with songs with deep roots.
