The Mountain Music with Sheesham and Lotus

November 29, 2009 by Chris

The musical style of Sheesham and Lotus is called mountain music. That is what Sheesham told me when I met him while walking my dog Midnight. The music is simple and refreshing. Toe tapping is another phrase to describe the band’s genre but right now I can’t find the proper words to define these guys.

 

I just can’t help but feel so upbeat about life when I am taking in their unique musical way of life!

The music from Sheesham and Lotus gently brings me back to a time that seemed more kinder and respectful to one another. I just want to get up and dance … ok I won’t because I’m down right pathetic at it.

Check out more video’s of Sheesham and Lotus and see if you to get that feeling?!

Keep on Jammin’

    Im really digging this. Never heard the term mountain music, but if it spawns a new niche then I’m keen to hear more.

    I personally like the guy who makes music with his own body, tapping on the thighs, clapping his hands etc.. he really does make the whole track enjoyable.

    I get tired of classic rock and soft rock. In many places, they play that stuff 24/7. It’s always the same old songs. It’s nice to hear mountain music or other original stuff on other stations. They could at least play some classic rock that doesn’t get much airplay.

    I can’t understand why people want to hear the same old stuff all the time. However, they do like the same stuff and that gives us a clue about the sucess of propoganda and other forms of repeating media.

    I too agree with your overall statement Jason. I guess the radio’s set list is in the hands of it’s advertisers. I’ve seen some stations go under here and there and you’d think that the industry as a whole would get the picture but it’s always the assholes in the f—–‘ glass towers that get their way! I work in a hospital and that seems to be the trend now a days.

    Big brother is watching for sure Jason!

    Keep on Jammin’ my friend!
