Uruguay belongs high up any list of locations for musical discovery. Nestled between Argentina and Brazil way down on the southern tip of the Americas, it spends way too much time in the shadows of its better-known neighbors.

Fede Graña Y Los Prolijos even manage to reflect good old Americana — of the variety situated to our south and their north. Wherever it came from, though, it works.
