JP Carter & Friends - [excerpt]

With a night off from Destroyer's tour (where he was once more a part of Dan Bejar's backing band), Vancouver's JP Carter was looking for a local improvised music gig. He got in touch with drummer Joe Sorbara (himself still relatively recently-returned from the West Coast) who put together this group, which also included Aline Homzy (violin) and Ashley Urquhart (piano). Although Carter is often heard extending his trumpet sounds with electronics, this was an all-acoustic session, working up to some pleasing scrape/skronk — and, briefly, towards the end, even some double trumpet action from Carter.
