Favoriting Music For a Free World with Dave Sewelson: Playlist from June 3, 2023 Favoriting

Dave Sewelson's avatar View Dave Sewelson's profile Favoriting

Charles Mingus said jazz was a word invented to separate musicians from their money. Music for a Free World brings us together, drawing listeners to the healing power of smooth free jazz. Each week, surprise guests bring their own sides to spin and their instruments of choice to spontaneously jam.

Another cool thing is that she's playing at my workplace a couple of weeks from now, with Horse Lords on the same bill!
Less cool is that I'll miss it because I have a ticket to see The Dead C that day

(I didn't get distortion until the lightning strike, and I'm getting an error w/ my old laptop battery). fortunately, i still have my school laptop (they haven't asked for it back)

The worst thing is The Dead C are also playing the next day, but I didn't know the Horse Lords/Joëlle date when I booked (my fault too: they were super secretive but I could have asked the sound guys)

Back from the sale at macy's, got some peanuts, tomatoes, ginger, bananas, limes, apples; oh wait, that wasn't macy's; was my neighborhood produce shop.

I've seen and heard Lester St. Louis from times he played with Jaime Branch. Learned of work of eddy kwon when seeing (online) Kihlstedt's Borges work: Necessary Monsters. kwon's contribution to the performance was significant.

Question for Eddy: do you know Trajal Harrell, who's also inspired by butoh (and voguing, a mix that makes sense)
