NY-UK on tour Jazz sound-thinkers: Improv experimenters, sound & groove merchants

Two musicians from different avant/free Jazz backgrounds sharing a long-time passion

for expanding improvisation and redefining their instruments.  International travellers, reputations…

Genres are meant to be bent? That’s what legendary British percussionist, Paul Lytton and New York icon trumpeter Nate Wooley believe. The two musicians, thousands of miles and (age) apart met up in 2007 to record their debut LP for Detroit’s Broken Research Records and more history began…

“…But Lytton and Wooley share an interest in sound-of-itself, resisting neither the urge toward momentum nor necessarily the impulse toward climax. Their (“Broken Research”) recording is a fleeting attack against the senses, a finely-honed twenty-six minutes ranging from small, close-mic’d movements to a mouse fight in the utility drawer”.
