LIxJB

The reissue series continues! Light Industry X Jon Brooks (titled on streaming services as LIxJB to comply with the robot algorithms) features my acoustic trio Light Industry (Sean O'Connor on tenor sax and Andrew Furlong on bass) collaborating with singer/guitarist Jon Brooks.

The EP features two medleys, one of my songs morphs into one of Jon's. We were trying to achieve a melding of the freewheeling improvising of Light Industry and Jon's very carefully and masterfully crafted songs. I think we most definitely took a good bite out of it, but COVID 19 had others plans for this venture. This album was recorded late in 2019 and released in early 2020...

REISSUE SERIES: Cawthray Price Zankowski (2006)

I am reissuing many of my albums to streaming services, I hope you will check them out!

Make no mistake, streaming does not benefit artists financially, the economics of it are corrupt. But, the tech is undeniably convenient, and so I release these albums with the hope that if they bring you enjoyment, you might consider coming to a live show and paying the ticket price, or becoming a paid subscriber to my Substack.

here's one from 2006 featuring Rob Price on guitar and Ed Zankowski on saxophone, our self-titled record:
