about

another 2020 release for trumpeter alex massa, Strange Winds is an improvised chamber ensemble, composed of horn players living in chicago. not only does this recording feature many great musicians and friends, but it also represents the beautiful, and often dark, themes and ideas that tie the city's musicians together. the arts community is strong, resilient, and knows how to improvise when given very little.

this first record by the ensemble, 'llamas In chicago', is a wacky 38 minutes of magically defying sounds that turn the idea of what chamber music is, on its head. mai sugimoto (alto, flute, percussion, voice), hunter diamond (tenor, clarinet, percussion, voice), artie black (tenor, percussion, voice), brian seyler (tenor, voice, beer can), zach good (bass clarinet, soprano clarinet, voice, percussion), gerald bailey (trumpet, op-1, percussion), and alex massa (trumpet, percussion, voice) combine their novel and radical musical backgrounds to create something that sounds fresh, weird, and thought-provoking.

llamas is set to be released mid-august 2020 on ears&eyes records
