Ethereal. Cinematic. Vulnerable. Destructive. Using vibraphone, pedal steel, guitar, drums, percussion, bells, bass, voices.

Two of my favourite collaborators.

GROUNDING TRUTHING: …walking the ground to see for oneself if what has been told is true; near-surface discoveries.

When I first encountered the term “Ground Truthing”  in this beautifully written essay about the arctic (among other things), I didn’t realize it would become so pivotal. So much music made since this moment, all in the spirit of near-surface discoveries.
