Le Flashcube

"Houston native Hunter Perrin spent four years in John Fogerty's touring band, but his latest project, Le Flashcube, is 100 percent choogle-free. He also has degrees in classical guitar from UT-Austin and Yale and the range to tackle everything from complicated Heitor Villa-Lobos études to his own originals. Lightly sprinkled with accordion, vibraphone and trumpet, much of Le Flashcube gives off a vaguely European vibe, aside from the Spaghetti Western flair of Perrin's noirish "Santa Anas" and the straight-up surf-rock of "Juarez" (written by Perrin's Thunderado bandmate Paul Beebe)."
