Gitkin – 5 Star Motel OUT NOW!
5 Star Motel is the debut album from multi-instrumentalist and producer Brian Gitkin, inspired by his mysterious uncle, a travelling salesman who crossed the US in the late 70s selling knockoff Gibson guitars to the diverse groups of immigrants from across of the globe who were coming to the US during the 2nd great migration. Recycling and filtering the sounds he encountered, he created a sound rooted in the disparate sounds he was encountering from Ethiopia, Mexico, Peru, and North Africa.
