Awesome: Mariachi Mexteca ft Hugh Cornwell "Golden Brown"

As previously reported in October, ex-Stranglers vocalist Hugh Cornwell released a four song ep for his new single, "God Is A Woman." The God Is A Woman EP includes the single, two live tracks and Mariachi Mexteca's version of the Stranglers' classic "Golden Brown" featuring Cornwell on vocals.  The mariachi version of "Golden Brown" is FANTASTIC--the song lends itself so well to the mariachi guitar stylings, it's almost better than the original Stranglers' version, or perhaps, is equally as awesome as the original. The Mariachi Mexteca version of "Golden Brown" is available to download digitally from Amazon and iTunes.
