With PEK and Glynis Lomon joined by John Fugarino, Eric Dahlman, Michael Caglianone, Tor Snyder, Albey onBass, Scott Samenfeld, Cliff White, and Joel Simches, Leap of Faith expands into a richly textured septet where strings and horns form the core dynamic, augmented by percussion, electronics, and processing in an improvisation that evolves through a vast range of sonorities.

New York pianist Eva Novoa joins bassist Drew Gress and drummer Devin Gray for their second trio release on 577 Records, weaving melodic themes with swing and groove as Novoa expands the palette with Chinese gongs and whistling, Gress layers in modular synth textures, and the ensemble explores freedom, interplay, and evocative electronic landscapes.

The ninth set from Evil Clown's Perturbations project brings together reed players David Peck and Michael Caglianone with brass player John Fugarino, each expanding their roles through percussion, electronics, and objects, while Joel Simches provides real-time processing, creating a vivid and continuously transforming improvisation of shifting sonorities and electro-acoustic textures.
