Hooker, William - Yearn for Certainty

SKU Engine 032
It is too simplistic to categorize William Hooker as a fiery drummer who constantly explores structure and genre. Joined by multi-instrumentalists David Soldier and Sabir Mateen, his trio is both tender and thunderous!"

William Hooker: drums, spoken word
David Soldier: mandolin, banjo, violin
Sabir Mateen: saxophone, flute, clarinet

“Hooker has ceaselessly expanded not only the vocabulary of his instrument, he’s defied rigid categories by breaking down genres into universal music expression—in short, he has the mad chops and humanistic empathy to play with any musician on the planet.” — JazzTimes

“And while Hooker propels his bandmates via thrusting, odd-metered beats and his colossal wall of sound, he generates additional emphasis thanks to his subversive groans and yells. Thus, the artist spurs his associates onward throughout these curiously interesting pieces.” — All Music Guide
