about

These tracks mark our first venture in studio recording. They are an eclectic mix of jazz styles reflecting a band journey. Some we played at our earliest gigs. Others were not performed in public until this year. They were chosen to say thanks to all of those talented musicians who have played with Abtuse over the past eight years.

But we are a live band. That's where the risks are. That's where we find excitement and energy. So we recorded these tracks as if in performance, rough edges included. This is Abtuse as you will hear us. Live!

Brian Whittington, November 2019.
