Steve Tibbetts: “Northern Song” and the Sounds of Silence
by Rob Caldwell
It's a chilly, overcast afternoon in Oslo, Norway in late October 1981. This close to the Arctic Circle, the days are already rapidly shortening with winter's approach, the sun beginning to disappear over the horizon by mid-afternoon. In a darkened studio, guitarist Steve Tibbetts, percussionist Marc Anderson, producer and ECM Records head Manfred Eicher, along with ...
Chris Schlarb: Psychic Temples
by Ian Patterson
Truck driver, husband, father, and law-abiding citizen by day, Chris Schlarb presumably dons a cape at other moments that transforms him, if not quite into the savior of creative music, at the very least into the creator of other-worldly sounds of singular vision and exceptional beauty. Guitarist, composer, and founder of independent record label Sounds Are ...

Steve Tibbetts: Natural Causes
by AAJ Italy Staff
Tra i tanti artisti originali presenti nel catalogo ECM, Steve Tibbets è sicuramente uno dei più difficili da inquadrare. La sua musica è sempre risultata estremamente personale, con elementi di folk, rock, world, elettronica e ambient amalgamati in un modo assolutamente unico e originale. I suoi lavori nascono tutti nel suo studio di registrazione personale a ...

by Robert Bush
Domina Catrina LeeSongs From The Breastbone DrumSelf Produced2010 Singaporean guitarist and composer Domina Catrina Lee is not a household name. In a more just universe, she would be. Lee possesses a seemingly infinite musical imagination. Working with a computer and a “budget" acoustic guitar, Lee has crafted a ...
Steve Tibbetts: Natural Causes
by Ian Patterson
Although guitarist/composer Steve Tibbetts and Marc Anderson have collaborated since the late 1970s--the percussionist has played on every one of Tibbetts ECM releases--this is their first duo recording since Northern Song (ECM, 1982). That album employed silence as a sideman, and although there is less outright pause on Natural Causes, the same soothing, meditative ambiance forms ...

Steve Tibbetts: Natural Causes
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
First things first: this is a mellow record. A very mellow record. Not Ben Webster mellow, or Antonio Carlos Jobim mellow, or Morton Feldman mellow, but rather, a record of music depicting a kind of quietism: profoundly passive contemplation. And it's not clear that quietism is a direction all jazz fans will want to go.
Steve Tibbetts: Natural Causes
by John Kelman
Alongside Stephan Micus, Steve Tibbetts occupies a somewhat rare position in ECM's roster of longstanding musical collaborators. Like the German composer/multi-instrumentalist, this “Zen Guitarist" defies ECM's general rule of two days to record, one day to mix (with minimal editing and overdubbing); instead, Tibbetts has, with rare exception, recorded his music from a home base in ...
Steve Tibbetts: A Man About A Horse
by Javier AQ Ortiz
Quick and to the Point: Soothes and suits both emotion and reason'The oddly metered musical strands hailing from Central Asia, India and its adjoining regions are vital for jazz's lore and lure. Conjoined with music from the West, their enchanting, enthralling, and percussively melodic possibilities unwrap exotic gifts of expression and improvisation. Upon listening ...
