Objective:

Produce and engineer a debut EP for alt-jazz outfit Small-town Fiction.

Summary:

Honoured to receive funding from Help Musicians' "Do It Differently" fund, I wrote and recorded music for my new band, Small-town Fiction. This alt-jazz quintet aims to reconcile straight-ahead jazz with my formative non-jazz influences, blurring genre boundaries and embracing elements of post-rock, Afro-beat, and off-kilter waltzes. Recorded over two days at my home studio and mixed shortly thereafter, the project captures the group's visceral energy and inventive interplay.
