Ches Smith & Shara Lunon: Dismantling Musical Conventions

Laugh Ash is one of the most intriguing records I have encountered in quite some time, with its mix of form and improvisation, acoustic and synthetic, quiet and explosiveness.
In addition to Ches and Shara, the album includes an all-star cast from today's creative music scene: flutist Anna Webber, clarinetist Oscar Noriega, tenor saxophonist James Brandon Lewis, trumpeter Nate Wooley, violinist Jennifer Choi, violist, cellist Michael Nicolas, and bassist/keyboardist Shahzad Ismaily.
It is an exciting work and we had a great conversation.
