Mordechai - Khruangbin (Vinyl)
DOC193LP
$49.99
Mordechai is Khruangbin’s 2020 album — a warm, spiritual, globally‑influenced record shaped by a moment of personal transformation. The Rocket listing explains that after 24 months of constant touring, bassist Laura Lee found herself exhausted and directionless until an unexpected hike with a family of strangers, led by a man named Mordechai, sparked a sense of rebirth and awakening.
Known for drawing inspiration from Thailand, Iran and far‑flung musical traditions, Khruangbin turned inward for this album, reconnecting with their hometown of Houston, Texas — America’s most diverse city. This shift brought a new clarity: Laura Lee’s vocals take centre stage, surrounded by the band’s signature blend of funk, psych, soul and global grooves, sung across 14 languages in a swirl of melodic glossolalia.
Mordechai is one of Khruangbin’s most colourful and emotionally resonant works — uplifting, reflective and deeply human.
