Pond Life

PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNGEN
Guitarist/composer, Will Bernard's 11th album, "Pond Life" highlights a more adventurous side of his many musical endeavors. In this recording he investigates, "the inner workings of swampy musical ecosystems and the dreamy afternoon of sun-drenched water lilies." Bernard's original compositions explore the use of improvisational space and tight ensemble pages that expand upon a core trio sound with New York "downtown" notables Chris Lightcap on b, Regina Carter, Craig Tabron andChes Smith Marc Ribot and John Zorn on drums. Luminaries, Tim Berne on alto sax and John Medeski on keyboards fill out the textures with their remarkable capabilities. "Pond Life" reflects Bernard's lengthy musical development from his training in clical composition and jazz through his forays into funk, rock, avant-garde and world music. Bernard expands on his guitaristic sonic explorations that range from bluesy panchromatic slide to dense electronic textures and disjointed bebop lines that interact with Smith's symphonic drumming styles, Lightcap's full rounded b, Berne's driving sax and Medski's technicolor keyboards. "Pond Life" can be seen as a to the sound of an earlier trio with Ches Smith featured on Will's 2004 record, "Directions to My House."
