Too much has been made of the novelty aspects of Josh Lederman & Los Diablos, especially the Jewish, Celtic, Zydeco mix. Forget that. Josh Lederman writes songs, with artistry and wit, songs that hit home with anyone with a pulse and a past. This band has absorbed both musical history and personal history to, on their fourth record, hit a level that usually means their influence will start trickling down to new bands. "The Waltzing Ladies", "Te Protki Tancuja", "Early Morning By The Piers"; real songs for real people. Forget comparisons: your stories matter just as much as Elvis', and so do Lederman's.
