Liberty Ellman's Supercell: "Radiate" & "The Last Desert"
Jonathan Finlayson - trumpet
Steve Lehman - alto sax
Liberty Ellman - guitar and composition
Jose Davila - tuba and trombone
Stephan Crump - double bass
Damion Reid - drums

Commissioned for Chamber Music America's New Jazz Works program, The Last Desert explores textures inspired by geographic imagery, imagining the rebuilding of societal bonds in a future world where the new climate mandates cooperation for survival. Building upon the success of 2016's Radiate, The Last Desert brings back Supercell, a sextet that has been working together for the better part of a decade. The music is a tight weave of contemporarily composed structures that move between poignant melodic ideas, and rhythmic frameworks that feature the vibrant and unique improvising abilities of artists in the group.
