Read "(Willisau) 1991 Studio" reviewed by Mark Corroto

Mary Halvorson: Code Girl

Read "Code Girl" reviewed by Troy Dostert

by Troy Dostert

Those familiar with guitarist Mary Halvorson's numerous projects have become well-acquainted with the idiosyncratic, unorthodox, sometimes cerebral approach she takes to her craft. Halvorson's compositions are consistently thoughtful but rarely predictable and her improvising is similarly distinctive, so expecting the unexpected is par for the course.
