We met on a frigid, snowy, icy, night at one of our favorite Thai restaurants.
A person that we know only from their work, some amazing and beautiful recordings. We think: this person has a finely-honed artistic sensibility. Maybe it just happens? Time, experience and character all come together.
When we meet, and we speak together, it is clear that even though we all come from different times and places, with a vast range of different influences, we are all still talking the same language.
It is a meld of who we are, where we come from, how we carry ourselves, how we think about music and the making of music, and the other arts too. There is a simpatico vibe in the air. You think: this is a creative collaborator we can work with. Exciting. Rare. Cool.
Meeting someone from our tribe, they speak without doubts or apologies "Yes, doing what we love to do with love, for the love of the doing." Yes. Of course. Damn the torpedoes.
