New band with one album out (I found them in AllMusic's top of 2010 jazz albums). Harp lead improv/psychedelic/drone/electroacoustic/free jazz. In a word, avantgarde.  |

I'm kind of mixed...the first track was almost a bit too sparse for my liking. The second was better.

| If not for avant-garde jazz they'll fit nicely in Jazz related improvisation, either/or. |

Unlike Jon, I preferred the first track. Awesome stuff.

^ Same here. It's interesting that Jon likes all the mentioned elements when taken sepparately, but not the whole soup |
