Album Description

The Tiptons’ 14th recording Wabi Sabi features eleven new compositions for saxophones, voice and drums. This powerful collection of new music illustrates beauty in our chaotic world, and is inspired by the Japanese philosophy “Wabi Sabi" which encourages us to “find beauty and take pleasure in the imperfect”. Exploring modern field hollers, the hum of tires on the Autobahn, tricks for the mind, a yodeling deconstruction, popping funk for December’s doldrums, upbeat grooves for bad people with good intentions, this music delivers pure joy! Wabi Sabi galvanizes your senses and takes you through unforgettable soundscapes.

Thanks to a successful crowd-funding campaign, the Tiptons Sax Quartet met in Seattle in January, 2020 to rehearse, perform and record these 11 new songs for Wabi Sabi, their 14th Album.

Recorded by Floyd Reitsma at Studio LITHO in Seattle in January, 2020.
Mixed by Floyd Reitsma and the Tiptons.
Mastered by Rachel Field @ Resonant Mastering in Seattle.
