Why Are We Waiting – Edan Mor blew our minds on this song. This was the fullest track on the album in terms of instrumentation, with keys, drums, tabla, bass, oud, and doubled vocals. I asked Edan if he would take a sax solo in 3 spots. He took it as an opportunity to layer alto sax in a way I’d never heard before, creating a texture and mood that was a completely different approach from the standard solo over changes. 

I asked him to appear on my album because I played a show (for @extremayya!) where he made his sax sound otherworldly, almost like a flute. I couldn’t imagine he’d come in and build up an atmosphere in the way he did. 

This album was such a collaborative discovery in sound. Over the next few days I’ll be sharing more about what we found during the process of creating it.
