Portland’s Unknown Mortal Orchestra sound meets somewhere between the Flaming Lips, Prince, Black Moth Super Rainbow, and Pink Floyd. Soulful, funky, and psychadelic begins to describe their music, but it might be more helpful to just go and listen to their music than read this unfortunate attempt to explain their sound.
Unknown Mortal Orchestra’s Ruban Nielson and Quincy Mcrary played a stripped down set for us at Studio 1A over the weekend, reworking two tracks from their latest record Multi-Love, and one from their last record II, into a special acoustic guitar and piano only performance.
