Burlap To Cashmere CD

Stepping back into the spotlight after a decade away takes an unusually high degree of musical integrity. For folk-rock pioneers Burlap to Cashmere, a band that built a reputation for both exceptional studio projects and as an unyielding touring act in the late ‘90s, that integrity shines through on a new self-titled, 11-track project.
Burlap to Cashmere have an inspired blend of Mediterranean rhythms, rootsy textures and tight-knit harmonies, which lend the unmistakable air of folk-rock greats Simon & Garfunkel and Cat Stevens.
With their core lineup intact – singer/ guitarist/songwriter Steven Delopoulos, guitarist John Philippidis and drummer Theodore Pagano — Burlap to Cashmere return with renewed focus, drive and energy. “There’s something about family and people you’ve known forever that makes the chemistry happen,” Delopoulos says. “There’s a sense of honesty and trust. That’s Burlap to Cashmere.”
On their first album in more than a decade, Burlap to Cashmere draw from all the influences that made them a touchstone band: Mediterranean and Greek rhythms, flamenco and classic American folk, to create a rich body of work that embraces the past while crystallising their new creative vision.
