Breaking the Shell

"Breaking the Shell" is a groundbreaking new collaborative trio release from drummer Andrew Cyrille, guitarist Bill Frisell, and pipe organist Kit Downes. This highly anticipated new album showcases a unique and rarely heard combination of instruments – electric guitar with pipe organ, and drums. The result is a meditation on sonancy and an opportunity for three highly creative spirits to roam freely within an entirely new dimension.

"A captivating set."
Financial Times - Mike Hobart

"Spacey, bleepy abstract voyages, softly surging free-jazz, electronic storms that gather against deep organ chords meet tender guitar ballads and soft melodic ascents over Cyrille’s delicately detailed percussion... gripping if you let go."
The Guardian - John Fordham
