Hannah (clarinet, alto clarinet)
Jez (piano, loops, synths)
Almost entirely improvised music, with just a couple of ideas and melodies discussed in advance of each piece, and one melody and a loop which were prepared before the recording. The melody for Ghosts (revolution) was composed by Hannah. The music was all recorded in one day at Yellow Arch Studios in Sheffield, and feels reflective and conversational, and an honest representation of us as musicians.
"The musical chemistry between Hannah and Jez is undeniable and, with the aid of atmospheric electronics, their improvisations mesmerise." Now Then Magazine
