Surrounded By Sea

Andy Sheppard: tenor and soprano saxophones Eivind Aarset: guitar, electronics Michel Benita: double bass Sebastian Rochford: drums Extending the range of his widely-praised Trio Libero project with Michel Benita and Seb Rochford, Andy Sheppard adds Eivind Aarset (who made significant contributions to 2008s Movements In Colour) to the band. With Aarsets ambient drones and electronic textures as a backdrop, Sheppard and Co. Seem to have even more space to explore. The music embraced includes new compositions, open improvisations, an Elvis Costello tune, and the Gaelic traditional ballad Aoidh, Na Dean Cadal Idir which appears in three variations, a thematic thread through the album. Recorded August 30-September 1, 2014 / RSI Lugano Recording Engineer: Stefano Amerio DDD Produced by Manfred Eicher.
