Napoleon [Audio CD] Tremulis, Nicholas Orchestra

Napoleon, the new album from the Nicholas Tremulis Orchestra, seamlessly travels through the rock concert hall, soul dance party, Crescent City fete, late night jazz lounge, rollicking blues bar, and sharp-witted poetry slam. And all with a popular rock'n'roll vision that rests on a foundation of the finest musical traditions. Produced by Rob Frabroni, known for his work with The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, The Band and Eric Clapton, Napoleon blends contemporary elan with a rich historicity into a colorful and beguiling listening experience. From the evocative flash-card imagery of "You're Famous Baby" to the seductive strains of his collaboration with Alejandro Escovedo and Ivan Neville, "Till You Know Who You Are," it's a modern musical tour de force that reflects the sum of its maker's considerable musical background and gifts.
