"Live duo music from American expatriate saxophonist Rick Countryman and visiting Swiss drummer Christian Bucher, from the same 2017 Philippines session that produced Estuary. A creative mix of textural, conceptual, melodic and rhythmic interplay that captures the empathy shared between the two artists. Energetic, free flowing spontaneity, that has a subtle sense of logical composition and speaks to past generations."-FMR
"We recorded live at an unlikely, but supportive Manila venue called 20:20, back in 2017. Expecting that the crowd might be lively, which was the case, we came early to record a set before things got active. so, we ended up recording 3 sets. Estuary, was the first release from that night."-Rick Countryman
