Notes
“Mythomania” is the second release from New Orleans-based quartet Matt Booth & Palindromes. A premiere ensemble in the city’s fruitful scene of creative improvised music, the band presents original music and a unique ensemble sound that pushes at the boundaries of what is generally accepted as “New Orleans music”. Helmed by bassist Matt Booth, Palindromes also features top sidemen from the city: saxophonist Brad Walker, guitarist Chris Alford, and drummer Doug Garrison. “Mythomania” features four of Booth’s own compositions and three unlikely covers (Egberto Gismonti, Melvin Gibbs, Dirty Projectors), offering an alternative take on contemporary jazz in the 21st century.
