Taco Tapes comes to you as it came to us uninhibited, present in the now. Common music industry practice can bog an album down for years in a mire of edits, overdubs, recording sessions. Some of these songs are decades old, but they were recorded less than a month ago.
A team of individuals at the height of their powers arranged, sang, played, mixed and mastered these in a stream of consciousness style, a single take shot. You are hearing fresh-folk, spirited covers, and tuned up & turned on traditional, as if you were in the room.

Art Lindsay will join Mandorichard (host of WRCT’s Wednesday folk show
Whiskey Before Breakfast) for WRCT’s annual
Hank Williams tribute show.
Mandorichard tells us that, “In the wee hours of the morning on January 1, 1953, Hank Williams died in the back of an automobile from way too much whiskey, “
vitamins,” and drugs consumed before, during, and after breakfast for way too many years. A sad end to the career of one of the most influential 20th century American musicians.”
During the show, Art and Mandorichard will present some of the thousands of recordings Hank made in a national career that spanned just six years.
