Caught my third of three Frisell August show at the Vanguard tonight, this with the "Four" quartet a bass-free guitar/piano/sax/drums thing. The pace was largely slow and dreamy with lots of space for the players to move around in. The opening stretch was a masterclass in 4-way improv. Rest was decent.
Frisell at the VV in August is one of my favorite NYC livemusic annual traditions.

And then, as luck would have it, Bill Frisell! Matinee set back at Appel with totally different band and feel. Petra Haden, Ambrose Akinmusire and Tim Angulo creating more magic, vocals and all... Including the most haunting cover of Where Have All the Flowers Gone? imaginable.
So lucky to be able to catch 3 of his birthday shows. All unique in their own way, three lineups, three side of Frisell as a bandleader. A tryptych of Frisellian magic. Grateful!

Tonight: haven't seen anyone over the past 4 years as much as Marta Sanchez and I don't think I've loved anyone more over that period than I've loved Bill Frisell, but I do not believe I'd ever seen them together before tonight. Needless to say, it was sublime. Trio set at the Stone with Ingrid Laubrock. As with everything in that room could've gone a million ways, but was a total lighter-than-air bliss-out. Three musicians in constant, sweet-nothing conversation with each other. Everything I dreamed it could be and then some. Perfection!
