Now playing:
@herself Fantastic! Hope you like it. He’s a virtuoso player and brilliant composer, but also an incredibly humble, sweet guy (amazing to think that someone can be a genius and also not an entitled asshole). Here are some Youtube videos of live performances of four songs from this record: 76, Omission, Speak to Me, and Nothing Happens Here.
@jacob Agreed! Given my tastes and my own background in music and guitar, I'm ashamed that he's such a recent discovery for me.
@rnv I really enjoyed that! Jazz influences but so much more going on. It was quite a thrilling ride :)
@herself So glad to hear it! “So much more going on” is exactly what I like about his work, especially this album.
(Oh, and thank you so much for your order — I’ve already mailed copies of my chapbook to Spain, Scotland, and Canada but Aotearoa New Zealand will be the farthest it’s travelled yet! I’ll be posting it in the next few days, and it will probably take as much as two weeks to arrive.)
@rnv Thank you again! I forgot to mention when it arrived, but just wanted to say I really enjoyed it! Thank you!
