Describing Tengger Calvery Sound and Influence

Tengger Calvery is, what we call ourselves Mongolian folk metal, so we incorporate the elements of traditional folk music with heavy rock and heavy metal. We create a genre like Mongolian heavy rock or Mongolian folk metal. That how we call ourselves. You have different Mongolian orchestration and there is very familiar guitar riffs and western sounds…

On the origins of the band and the process for finding new members
 
The band was originally formed in 2010 in Beijing and then I moved to NY, like 2 years ago and i relocated the band and i recruited new members in America.
 
Its Interesting as I would start to find all the people from the website Bandmix.com and I found my bass player and it turns out that he was about to deactivate his account and then he saw my message and was like “ok sure i’m going to give it a last shot, And he knew the drummer…

On the cultural backgrounds of the new members.
 

I really like this new lineup, because it really incorporates national levels. Also its interesting because the drummer is Ukrainian and the the bassist is central Asian / Russian, so their cultures came from the very close region of Mongolia and actually in the 13th century it was all part of the Mongolian empire. So they know the Mongolian culture pretty well, it makes things easier to work when we talk about the Mongolian cultures warrior we all know what it is so its like we don’t know what it is, we all appreciate the culture, and so far we work pretty well together...
