Really enjoyed Chris Forsyth's set of improv rock/jazz fusion last night. Thanks @chrisforsyth.bsky.social!
First of four What Is Now shows supporting Orcutt Shelley Miller tonight in Philly. Then BASIC at Big Ears. See you out there.
BRUTAL. But also a misunderstanding of what creates meaning in music (or anything).

“Chris Forsyth leans into the cool jazz aesthetic of his new ensemble at first, but these long pieces morph, over time, into driving, droning grooves,” writes Jennifer Kelly. dustedmagazine.tumblr.com/post/8102624... @chrisforsyth.bsky.social

You probably can sense this, but he is one of my absolute all time favorite guitar players. A huge huge influence on my to this day. Peerless.
Great news!
