Following the recording of the Ten Titles Project came the inevitable problem of how to tour it with personnel being spread across three countries.
After my move back to Australia I set about planning a new ensemble. Something that was local, original and fresh, but still linked to the Ten Titles music. I had toyed with the idea of expanding the Ten Titles lineup to include more bottom end but the numbers of band members was getting prohibitive.
The as yet un-named ensemble was the solution. It’s still evolving but the music is written with mandolin, trumpet, lower mid stringed instrument (guitar, laouto), dbl bass and percussion.
