<\/a>This night was a special treat where they performed as a duo and then added members with clarinet, bass and drums further sending you into the chamber of rockness! A nice crowd showed up including Machado\u2019s parents and grandma, and showed enthusiastic support all evening.\u00a0 Covering the Righteous Brothers\u2019 epic tune \u201cLost That Loving Feeling\u201d was a stellar rendition that got our attention major.\u00a0 MH\u2019s long and flowing gyrations on her cello are subtle, but very sweet to witness.\u00a0 Girl can flat out play and one can see why she has a real job of teaching her craft to students. Both members can let the vocals soar when they want to and harmonizing is a key to their success.\u00a0 Two stand out numbers were \u201cBird and Fish\u201d and \u201cAliens\u201d where Maddy let it rip asunder on her cello!\u00a0 I\u2019ve been a Pearl Jam fan from day one and their version of \u201cBetter Man\u201d is a spot on killer rendition!<\/p>\nMLC\u2019s sound is something that is hard to \u201clabel\u201d, but is pure and innovative and that is thee attraction for us. You could not meet a more down-to-earth pair of hard working people who really enjoy carving a niche in the vastly expansive Houston music scene.\u00a0 They are very aggressive in their touring schedule playing any place anybody will have them including scoring good vibes in MH\u2019s home town Chicago area.\u00a0 Rose and I love cheering for an underdog and love supporting people who care about their craft.\u00a0 If good jazzy rock jams interest you go no farther than securing a night with this act!\u00a0 I bet you\u2019ll come away a fan like Houston Music Review is\u2026<\/p>\n

<\/a>The Southwest Regional Folk Alliance in Austin, Texas has been a hot bed for us to catch on to new artists the last five years or so. One of those happens to be by the name of Mystery Loves Company whom we met in 2015. They are a touring and recording duo from Houston,Texas whose diverse musical influences create an edgy and lyrical sound that equates to what they like to call \u201cChamber Rock\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0 They met at McGonigel\u2019s Mucky Duck\u2019s open mic night in 2012 and found out their collaboration spawned a sound that surprised them both in a good way.\u00a0\u00a0 Electric cello is something we were never exposed to and sweet Madeline Herdeman can rock your socks off when she gets rolling coupled with Carlos Machado\u2019s acoustic guitar prowess.\u00a0 They both have above average pipes and spending an evening with these two can be a mystifying experience.<\/p>\n
