Details: Bringing their myriad of influences and eclectic fusion of sounds, THE MAVERICKS will debut “All Night Long,” the lead track from their highly anticipated new album. In conjunction with the release of MONO (The Valory Music Co.) on February 17, the Grammy-winning band will launch their international MONO MUNDO TOUR 2015 on February 19. 
Fans are thrilled and media is raving with a flurry of buzz eliciting a hunger for more music, more signature swagger … more of The Mavericks. Stream the full album in advance this entire week on NPR First Listen via http://www.npr.org/2015/02/08/384056172/first-listen-the-mavericks-mono and hear why Ann Powers claimed, “Music this seductive earns the title timeless."
The ability to transcend time, to merge Latin cultures seamlessly with American rock/pop/country standards, to offer the erogenous without salacious slather, The Mavericks […] created a new world for post-country country—as musically satisfying as it is hormone-peaking.”
- PASTE

The Mavericks became great by cutting through the din in smoky rooms where studio tricks didn't factor in — only a killer voice, indelible hooks and the ability to draw in even the most distracted listeners.”
- NPR

"Country's coolest, most versatile band, led by the silver-throated Raul Malo, returns with more country infused with elements of world music, rock, jazz and whatever else the group has decided to throw in."
-
ROLLING STONE COUNTRY

“…their sound is as sleek as ever. The record was recorded in just five days; that fact alone testifies to how strong they are live.”
-
THE VILLAGE VOICE

 “With a sound as distinctive as John Fogerty or even Steely Dan, they managed to not only reconstitute themselves, but retain their visionary musically integrity. . . .On Mono, they’ve caught lightning in a bottle yet again.”
-
VINTAGE GUITAR
With a Cuban-American lead singer, garage band ferocity, an intense live show and a deep love of both romance and pure country to go with the polyrhythmic beats they were raised on, The Mavericks were unlikely superstars. Yet, their raucous, genre-defying force broke ground with hits like “Here Comes The Rain,” “Crying Shame,” “Dance The Night Away” and “All You Ever Do Is Bring Me Down” and scored industry awards in prestigious categories like Vocal Group and Album of the Year. While an indefinite divergence led them in different directions until the 2013 release of IN TIME and subsequent touring, The Mavericks have since topped many critics’ Best Of lists: American Songwriter, The Boston Globe, NPR, Los Angeles Times and New York Magazine.
