Inhabitants - The Furniture Moves Underneath

SKU DRIPAUDIO253
"Inhabitants are an instrumental four-piece from Vancouver, featuring JP Carter on acoustic and amplified trumpet/effects, Dave Sikula on guitar/effects, Pete Schmitt on bass/effects and Skye Brooks on drums. Close dissection of their music may reveal elements of experimental jazz, noise rock and free improvisation. However, the band prefers to approach their music without preconception of genre, creating a self-defined channel of composition and sound. All active in the Vancouver creative music scene, the Inhabitants are, in part, a product of their environment. In 2005, the Inhabitants released their self-titled debut, an album Down Beat magazine described as "an aural introduction to a dream". Textura.org also voiced approval, saying the band "strikes just the right balance between experimentation and structure". Later that year the group recieved the CBC Galaxie Rising Star Award at the 2005 Vancouver International Jazz Festival. In 2006, the Inhabitants toured Europe, performing at the Moers Festival in Germany. They were billed as "the most exciting new band in Canada"."

"Hypnotic and dense, these Inhabitants occupy territory that will continue to yield riches with further exploration." - Down Beat (**** stars)

"The band's new disc exudes confidence from the get-go..." - Eye Weekly

"...what jazz was supposed to become." - Left Hip Magazine

"Progressive, moodily ascending and impassioned..." - Edmonton Sun
