Descriptions, Reviews, &c.

"The first duo album from Andrew Barker (Barker Trio, Gold Sparkle Trio, Acid Birds, Little Huey Creative Orchestra) and Daniel Carter (too many groups to mention) since 2001's Common Soldier (Qbico).

Polyhedron finds Barker and Carter stretching the classic sax and drums duo into all kinds of wild territories and featuring their multi-instrumental talents throughout. Each piece is dedicated to colleagues that they have both worked with in the past and present (Roy Campbell, Sabir Mateen, William Parker and Charles Water)."-Astral Spirits
