For his frst solo album since the early 1990s, Steven Brown, Tuxedomoon's joint-front man, delivers a hypnotic collection of songs which draws from his life in Mexico, where he's been living for many years

'El Hombre Invisible' is centred around his emblematic vocals, melodies and lyrics, set in an intimate environment, with sparse elegant, arrangements for guitar, bass, occasional horns, and his own trademark piano and saxophone playing.The atmosphere and lyrics of the songs refect some of the experiences and impressions he has gathered including earthquakes, a kidnapping, rubbing shoulders with the Zapatistas in Chiapas, and being confronted with the still omnipresent traces of the Spanish conquest fve centuries. Other infuences are Steven's years of working as a cultural activist, and his enduring love for the beauty of the natural world and the people of his hometown of Oaxaca. El Hombre Invisible was recorded in Oaxaca with local musicians, including Lila Downs, who duets with him on the song Familias Ricas plus special guests: Tuxedomoon's Luc van Lieshout on trumpet and Chris Haskett (ex-Rollins Band) on guitar.
