The Threnodies Band is very dangerous !!

the band ,Doug Cameron drums,Tim Crofts keys,Ron J Hynes bass and I ,Geordie Haley guitar are about to have our 4th rehearsal ...working on Threnody 4 has been an amazing journey ...Ron has been tearing into the material driving the rest  of us into practice mode ...time changes,feel changes ,yet the under lying premise is still the blues,with 12 bar sections forming with no effort ,as if the muse was trying to tell me to go with the flow ... i have also been able thanks to tim's prowess ,to start building some very large harmonic movement ,employing matrixes i have developed based on three note chords derived from the 9 note blues scale. the harmonies and melodies are coming, trying many strategies  to get more beats for the next piece . Dropped some ideas off to Doug ,who has been providing rehearsal space,chart editing and now transcribing these new ideas to his drum set ,in short Doug saves the day effortlessly ! We are also gearing up for our print promo for the run at neptune,with some interesting acts that we are sharing the bill with,more to come from the Jazz East Festival reveal tomorrow ! Having a production goal for this work is scary but enthralling ! i am over the moon but hovering cannot wait to have this new work up and running !
