With the release of GROUNDED, the debut Ep by Mondo, we expect to see him playing out more and solidifying his already large fan base. Recorded at Chandler Pratt’s, of the Good Luck Thrift Store Outfits, home studio and utilizing a group of seasoned local musicians. Along with Chandler Pratt Electric Guitar, Keys, Vocal Harmonies, Banjo, Bass, Tambourine and Synth, he is joined by Ray Ray Sheen Keyboards, Ray Vazira Keyboards and Rob Hill Harp, Mondo plays the acoustic guitar, vocals and harmonies. Releasing 7 self penned tunes from those sessions as Grounded.
“I chose the title Grounded because by definition it exemplifies who i strive to be as a father, husband, and human being, and who i try to be as an artist. With me turning 42 this year I am not trying to live my life as i did when i was 25. ”
It is truly a labor of love with Mondo but a love he is determined to share with all of us. Pick up a copy of the new Ep. at any of Mondo Mariscal’s up coming shows or download it from most platforms.
