Deeply boundary pushing improv jazz led by Canadian reedist Anna Webber. I honestly don’t know how Brooklyn based this band is since at least three (maybe all four) members of this quartet are Canadian but Webber has been part of the new free jazz scene going on there. Whatever scene, if any, this band identifies with, this is a fantastic release.

Honestly, as new as this year still is, I’ve discovered more top shelf free jazz already than I expected to find all year. I realize if I constantly blow sunshine up the ass of everything I write about here people might be less inclined to explore my recommendations but this one is 5/5 Stars good. I cannot lie. I love this. There’s a great new tradition of free jazz going on and this at the forefront.

I see this as music growing from the tradition of La Monte Young and Don Cherry.
