Synopsis

Product Description
Yerba Buena, the third release from the Harding sisters and their band Conjunto Jardín the name is a play on the Spanish pronunciation of Libby and Cindy's last name retains the driving rhythms, sparkling harp-and-requinto interplay and trademark sibling vocals that characterized the group's first two efforts. But this time, many more influences are brought into the mix. There's the traditional son jarocho El Ahualulco done in accordion-driven Colombian vallenato style, and the crackling Afro-Cuban montuno of Fandanguito de los Muertos. Procol Harum's Conquistador has been Latin Americanized with Venezuelan cuatro, guitars, organ and flutes. There's still plenty in this generous collection to please fans of traditional son jarocho; but the real news is in the ways in which Conjunto Jardín continues to expand the borders of son jarocho. Conjunto Jardín was nominated for Best Latin/Salsa Artist in the 2003 L.A. Weekly Music Awards and is the recipient of an L.A. Treasures Award from the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs.
