After their 2016 tour of the US West Coast, husband and wife free improvising duo Ingrid Laubrock (tenor & soprano sax) and Tom Rainey (drums) entered a Brooklyn studio with a set of co-written compositions, which they weave together with free improv, relying on cues that can trigger a given composition at any time, adding a unique layer of communication to their exuberant playing.

Recorded at Brooklyn Recording, in Brooklyn, New York, on April 10th, 2018, by Andy Taub.
"In 2016, Tom Rainey and I went on a second extended duo tour - this time all along the West Coast of the United States. As a duo, we had been playing improvised music up until then. For this tour we wanted to change the concept and also include composition, which (except for Chant II) we co-wrote and memorized. In our performances, we weave in and out of these pieces in whatever way we feel like - the composed material is triggered by small musical cues either of us can play at any given moment. This recording is a documentation of those tunes as well as a few improvisations."-Ingrid Laubrock
