"Each of the 14 instrumental tunes here is a thing of breathtaking beauty... seductive from the first note to the last." - Seven Days - Burlington, VT One of the "Top 10 Vermont CDs of 2003". - Burlington Free Press & Seven Days "The Green Vine ... is among the finest New England-connected albums of 2003." - New England Music Scrapbook "An instrumental collage of far-away places, sunny exuberance, and quiet introspection." -Portsmouth Times 35th Parallel's name is inspired by the latitudinal line running through the regions from which they draw their music: the Middle East, North India, North Africa, the Mediterranean, and the United States. With primary instrumentation of Middle Eastern oud and Indian tabla, 35th Parallel also finds its voice in a wide range of instruments including bouzouki, acoustic guitar, jaw harp, didjeridoo, and assorted percussion. The use of looping devices and other technology introduces a diversity of sonic textures into their live performances and provides a backdrop for the group's musical explorations. 35th Parallel performs throughout the Northeastern United States, presenting concerts, lecture/demonstrations, and participating in school artist-in-residence programs. Their first album, The Green Vine, was released in October of 2003.
