The Nels Cline Singers Share The Wealth (2LP)
Product Type: Vinyl
You have to have a good dose of humor to start a combo called The Nels Cline Singers and release a debut album "Instrumentals" (2002). Neither the cult guitarist nor his colleagues, punk jazz saxophonist Skerik (Critters Buggin, Garage a Trois, Bobby Previte), keyboardist Brian Marsella (John Zorn, Cyro Baptista's Beat the Donkey, Jon Madof's) sing on the formation's third album Zion80), bassist Trevor Dunn (Mr. Bungle, John Zorn), drummer Scott Amendola (Bill Frisell, Charlie Hunter, Ben Goldberg) and percussionist Cyro Baptista (John Zorn's The Dreamers, Caetano Veloso, Paul Simon). Instead, the musicians create dynamic soundscapes and partly completely improvised, groovy tracks between jazz, rock and avant-garde.
