Recording: Swankey/Pitt/Pitt

Artist: Laura Swankey/Brittany Pitt/Dan Pitt

Song: [excerpt from first piece]

Recorded at Wenona Lodge (Track Could Bend #96), October 1, 2024.

Laura Swankey/Brittany Pitt/Dan Pitt - [excerpt from first piece]

There were pedals all around for this trio, with Dann Pitt (electric guitar) flanked by Brittany Pitt (baritone sax) and Laura Swankey (vox). There were some nice swirling sounds here and some outward-pushing adventures that, with the addition of a rhythm section, could turn this into a particularly cosmic psych band.

You can check out some more from this set over on youtube:

[Track Could Bend is back at Wenona on Tuesday (November 5th) with solo sets from visitors Darren Williams and Rebecca Bruton and an introductory duo from Marilyn + Apple. Meanwhile, Brittany Pitt, with her Reverie ensemble, will be holding down a November residency at The Rex, with shows every Tuesday in November from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.]

Recording: Josh Cole & Mira Martin-Gray

Artist: Josh Cole & Mira Martin-Gray

Song: [first piece]

Recorded at Wenona Lodge (Track Could Bend #96), October 1, 2024.

Josh Cole & Mira Martin-Gray - [first piece]

A fabulous blend of techniques and technology, with Josh Cole's double bass operating in acoustic space and triggering samplesplosions from Mira Martin-Gray's reactive laptop manipulations, resulting in some truly futuristic jazz.
