Fields by Ross Hammond and Neil Welch

Seattle saxophonist Neil Welch and I recorded remotely while under Cover-19 quarantine. The two pieces on here contain elements of desert blues, raga and broad, wide-open soundscapes.

Neil and I have been friends for over 10 years now, and he's one of my favorite horn players and improvisers to play with and listen to. The way he listened and built upon the two tracks I sent him for this project has been inspiring. He's a powerful voice on his horn, and on top of that a good human.

Enjoy. Music can't be quarantined.
