Don Cavalli: Temperamental
With his latest release Don Cavalli builds upon the unique template he established with his criminally overlooked domestic debut, Cryland.
From his name to his sound, there isn't anything particularly French-sounding about Paris-based artist Don Cavalli. With his latest release, Temperamental, Cavalli builds upon the unique template he established with his criminally overlooked domestic debut, Cryland (one of my favorite albums of all-time, fwiw). Cavalli manages to pull off the nifty trick of sounding familiar, yet completely fresh at the same timewith a sound that exists somewhere at the nexus of swamp blues, wah wah funk, bubblegum pop, and psychedelic rock.
I can't recommend this album enoughand I'm super stoked that we're offering Temperamental as part of KCRW's Album Preview series. Enjoy!
