Crazy Mary an eclectic band based out of New York City. Dversity is the signature style of the group. It is very hard to categorize Crazy Mary as their unique music is a mix of garage band, retro, 90's psychedelic and synthetic sounds. There are also traces of pop, rock, British and possible alternative. Their songs are an exotic mix of electronics, spacey guitars and funky beats. On this collection they are joined by avant-garde violinist Walter Steding and the New York Horns, thus giving their assorted tunes even more variety. This thirteen-track collection features both male and female vocals. 'Brian Jones' is a pert tribute to Jones. The track incorporates funky electronic sounds with subtle sampling of 'Please Go Home' by The Stones. It is a creative mix of alternative sounds and classic rock. 'Land of Jagged Mountains' features Charles Kibel playing electric sitar giving this track a spacey Middle Eastern feel. Sophia Jackson on vocals and finger cymbals is hypnotic. Creative beats, sharp guitars and the violin complete the scene. It is followed by 'Still Water', which has an energetic blues vibe thanks to organ tones, cool beats, slide guitar and the harmonica. Crazy Mary is zany and fun!
