The album features a trio with two musicians Akinmusire has long admired, guitarist Bill Frisell and drummer Herlin Riley.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“This is my reaction to being assaulted by information,” Akinmusire says of Owl Song. “This record is me wanting to create a safe space. Part of the challenge was: Can I create something that’s oriented around open space, the way some of the records I love the most do?”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHe says of his collaborators, “I had a feeling of wanting to record with Bill from the first time we played—it was a duo performance, very little rehearsal. We just played through some of my songs, and it worked. One of Bill’s special gifts is the ability to shape a piece he’s just heard for the first time. He seems to know what the music wants before the first note.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“With Herlin, his commitment to beauty you can find in the groove. I never like to tell musicians too much about what I’m going for, because it should be about what these particular people bring … I said, ‘I know you’re the right person for this because of the way you approach the groove.’ And, of course, what he did is just beautiful.” He continues, “Also, I wanted to put people together who didn’t seem like they would go together ... and it turns out they haven’t played a lot. So, it was cross generational, cross subgenre, cross whatever.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwl Song 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeighted Corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlux Fuelings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwl Song 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMr. Frisell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMr. Riley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHenya\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 075597905977\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nonesuch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.15.23\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ambrose Akinmusire","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51474724323624,"sku":"319704","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0745\/0155\/4472\/files\/4274072-3218490.jpg?v=1772238137","url":"https:\/\/soldoutvinylrecords.com\/products\/ambrose-akinmusire-owl-song-lp","provider":"soldoutvinylrecords","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
