Award-winning Canadian-American saxophonist, multireedist, and composer COLIN STETSON has shared a new track from his forthcoming album - The love it took to leave you. The new album is out 13 September 2024 through Invada Records (excl. N America) and Envision Records (North America).
“One of the first songs I wrote for this record, ‘The Six’ is a vengeful strut. Played on solo bass saxophone, this one's big and mean with long arms and a toothy grin.”
- Colin Stetson
The new album was recorded over a week in early 2023 at The Darling Foundry, a 144-year-old former metalworks facility in Montreal now transformed into a 3500m3 contemporary art complex, with a voluminous main room that still maintains its raw architecture of brick, concrete and steel. From the album’s opening track, ‘The love it took to leave you’ Stetson charts a carefully sequenced ride, travelling through intense territories punctuated with tragic melodies that seek transcendence, epic and frenzied shredders, and many shades of scary beauty, betrayal, and redemption. “I see pieces of music that can be completely full narratives with characters and imagery and in a full plot; and then other times I think that they are more like directions. And so how long is the direction? It's going, it starts, and it goes to a place - and it leaves you there. They are modes of transportation."
