The Other Side Of Life: Piano Ballads
Bayonet Records
*** we will have a few pairs of beach fossils socks to go in with random orders! ***.
Scratching a smokey jazz itch, Beach Fossils slow things down and crack their knuckles for this imaginative reinterpretation of their greatest hits as cocktail bar piano & bass numbers. Inspired by a love of artists such as Bill Evans, Lester Young, Chet Baker and Vince Guaraldi, Dustin Payseur reimagines some of his greatest hits from the Beach Fossils catalog alongside a group of formally trained jazz musicians. A rich and mellow mix of piano, saxophone, upright bass and brushed drums explore the contours of familiar songs, soaring Payseur’s melancholic harmonies to new heights. "improvisational jazz, classical music, and Stereolab... his songwriting owes more to loop-based composition than garage-bound woodshedding." – Pitchfork
