When Cory Weeds first approached me about this album, he told me, “I want young people, swinging”, so I happily hired the most swinging young people I know. I don’t think there is anything more inspiring and authentic to the history of hard bop than that. This album is an homage to many of my favorite prodigious hard-boppers, such as Kenny Dorham and Lee Morgan, but especially to people like Art Blakey. He was always a proponent of swinging hard and hiring the up-and-coming young cats. Swing has always and will continue to provide a voice for the youth. Cellar Live artists Jacob Chung and Tyler Henderson are featured on this record, as well as star-saxophonist Erena Terakubo, the constantly-hired Joey Raneiri, and the New York Native taking names, Willie Bowman.

The striking cover image of an abandoned swing illuminated against a field of glittering stars makes a compelling visual metaphor for the music on Close. “Music is a twilight language,” Steve Tibbetts confirms. “The job is to translate some shadow into sound.” On his 11th ECM release the Minnesotan guitarist resumes the quest, slowly developing his yearning improvised melodies over layered loops and drones and darkly rumbling percussion. If the sound colours, including distorted electric guitar and sparkling 12 string acoustic, make this music of the west, its gradual, almost hypnotic unfolding continues to suggest eastern affinities. “I am still reaching for the evocative sound of Sultan Khan,” says Tibbetts, speaking of the late Indian sarangi master whose playing has long been among his major influences.

After years of writing, wandering, and starting over, Evan Dando returns with Love Chant, the first Lemonheads studio album of original material in nearly two decades.

I’ve always been captivated by the night sky, endlessly wondering about what lies beyond. Amidst the vast expanse of stars, there is a sense of balance and symmetry that fascinates me—an order within the chaos. The innate patterns of the constellations sparked my curiosity, prompting me to explore how these celestial forms might be translated musically.
