about

It's always a joy to book a studio, call some musos, and ask them to create some new music with you in the moment.
You never know what you'll get.
But you hope it will sound lovely.
SHORT contains all of the freely improvised solos and duos that alf, damien, and I, played in 4 hours on a rainy tasmanian saturday afternoon.
On the day of the recording we laughed a lot, damien got sick, and alf brought kiwifruit - I hypnotised one of zarven's chickens.
I think the music is lovely, and I hope you do too - it's offering is as pure as we could make it at least…
