 Spain - discography
The Blue Moods Of Spain is the intoxicating debut from the quartet fronted by bassist Josh Haden (son of bass-playing jazz great Charlie Haden) and rounded out by drummer Evan Hartzell and guitarists Ken Boudakian and Merlo Podlewski.
Spain's music is a response to the current inundation of loud, aggressive guitar-rock; Spain combine country music's simple storytelling aesthetics with the blues' ability to not only describe an emotion but to make the listener feel.
Spain's music lifts the spirit even as it admits to the crushing of the heart; anyone who has loved and lost -- or won, but wondered -- finds considerable that is familiar in these songs, most in minor key; nothing that they've heard, but much of what they've felt.

Their 1995 debut, The Blue Moods of Spain, was a promising effort, handicapped by the lack of a strong vocalist.
As of its release, they were primarily a studio act that had rarely performed live, as its members lived in separate cities; they did not regroup for another record until 1999's She Haunts My Dreams.
