Jack Mouse Group: Intimate Adversary

by Chris Mosey
November 22, 2018

The great Spanish cellist Pablo Casals would sometimes refer to his instrument as his “intimate adversary."

December 25, 2014

This may be a brand new release for 2015, but it's been thirty years in the making. Drummer Jack Mouse and man-of-many-horns Scott Robinson have been contemplating putting together an album of freely-improvised duets since the '80s, and now they've finally found the time and place to make it happen. Snakeheads & Ladybugs ...

Jack Mouse & Scott Robinson: Snakeheads & Ladybugs

by Jack Bowers
December 14, 2014

Jack Mouse plays drums; Scott Robinson plays almost everything else. So even though the word “duets" is (properly) used to describe their two-part collaboration on Snakeheads & Ladybugs, the album's concept and resolution go far beyond that. For example, there are no written compositions here, simply perceptive and spontaneous improvisation between two inordinately accomplished musicians. Free ...
