Bill Frisell, Kit Downes, Andrew Cyrille
BREAKING THE SHELL
"Breaking the Shell" is a groundbreaking new collaborative trio release from drummer Andrew Cyrille, guitarist Bill Frisell, and pipe organist Kit Downes. This highly anticipated new album showcases a unique and rarely heard combination of instruments – electric guitar with pipe organ, and drums. The result is a meditation on sonancy and an opportunity for three highly creative spirits to roam freely within an entirely new dimension.
“This is a trio serving a force and a philosophy greater than itself. Bill Frisell, Kit Downes and Andrew Cyrille are like a tetrahedron, a triangular pyramid, a three-dimensional equilateral triangle with four faces, the fourth being the creation and contours of the music itself.” - Philip Watson
