Bill Laurance & Michael League - Close to Home Bill Laurance & Michael League
Pickup available at Dawson Street
Usually ready within 24-48 hours - Pre-order items available on day of release.
The essence of the duo formed by pianist Bill Laurance and bassist and oud player Michael League - say a lot with very little, a concept that, through two albums released to date and acclaimed concerts - has earned them a following that, for once, truly deserves to be called ‘cult’.
Both are core members of five-time GRAMMY-winning collective Snarky Puppy, and each has a rapidly growing fanbase.
Twenty years of collaboration and friendship, at its most exposed. ‘Close to Home’ is the duo in its purest form: “Simple, exposed and raw,” in their own words. You hear the musicians breathing, the strings of the oud, the mechanism of the grand piano and birdsong drifting in from the garden between the notes. Many of the pieces were written at night, between 2:00 and 5:00AM.
CD in six-page digipack.
