The Gowanus Session

The Gowanus Session is a new trio recording by Thollem McDonas (piano), William Parker (acoustic bass), Nels Cline (electric guitar), that explores the density and subtlety of tones with reverberating layers of sounds. Thollem McDonas approaches the piano brilliantly, leading the listener to image abstract and beautiful worlds within themselves. William Parker, with his mastery of the acoustic bass, brings warmth to the recording that is complex, soaring and joyful. Nels Cline's innovative and shape shifting guitar runs the range of identifiable guitar to micro-tonal alien transmissions that act as a solid sound foundation. A pinnacle recording from three master improvisers that reveals new sonic discoveries with each listen.
