The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra and Tra-La-La Band (David Garland/WNYC)The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra and Tra-La-La Band
Performing their dramatic, mysterious, politically-charged songs, the seven members of The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra and Tra-La-La Band (all of whom sing) bring their violins, cello, double bass, drums, and electric and acoustic guitars all the way from Montreal to the WNYC studio for Spinning On Air. Host David Garland welcomes them and discusses with them their songs about citizens, missiles, electric chairs, beauty, and strength.

It is refreshing to see that a band with such a mysterious persona is so down to earth, humble, and warm. Adding a human voice to the members, made me appreciate the band more.
