French Lunch by Bad Sportsmanship

French Lunch was composed and recorded collaboratively by Elliott Tadanier and Peter Beeler between February and August 2025.

The phrase "French Lunch" began as an inside joke - to share a bottle of wine with friends over lunch - but generalizes to letting merriment and companionship triumph over taking ones self too seriously.

This collection of tropicalia-inspired jazz fusion emerged as the natural convergence of Peter and Elliott's musical inclinations; ideas cherry-picked from loose jams around a riff or drum beat, formalized into a four song EP.
