BEACH FOSSILS
THE OTHER SIDE OF LIFE: PIANO BALLADS (BAYONET)
Inspired by a love of artists such as Bill Evans,Lester Young, Chet Baker and Vince Guaraldi,Dustin Payseur reimagines some of his greatest hits from the Beach Fossils catalog alongside a group of formally trained jazz musicians.
A rich and mellow mix of piano, saxophone, upright bass and brushed drums explore the contours of familiar songs, soaring Payseur's melancholic harmonies to new heights.
Recommended for fans of Chet Baker, Norah Jones, Kamasi Washington,BADBADNOTGOOD, Wild Nothing, DIIV, Kevin Krauter "improvisational jazz, classical music, and Stereolab...
his songwriting owes more to loop-based composition than garage-bound woodshedding." - Pitchfork
