Via Portland

*'Via Portland'* is the second album by **The Mulligan Brothers**, a beautiful follow-up and perfectly balanced by producer and Grammy Award winner **Steve Berlin** (*Los Lobos*). Imagaes, sound and stories melt together in an even flow while **Ross Newell** curls his voice around the words that built up his tales. Songs about interracial love, murder ballads, a capella harmonies and mostly acoustic instruments create warm glow filled with heartache and desire.
