Product information "Heart in Hand"

HEART IN HAND, the new album and first official collaboration by American multi-instrumentalists Kenny Wollesen and Ned Ferm on Stunt Records, is a deep and soulful journey into genre-bending musical territory through folk-inspired compositions and inventive interludes. Wollesen is heard on drums, percussion, hand-claps, piano, and electric vibraphone, while Ferm appears on tenor saxophone, clarinet, flute, violin, percussion, background vocals, and Fender Rhodes - in layered arrangements exploring extreme dynamic peaks and valleys as well as nuanced soundscapes and subgenres that pay tribute to Folk and Americana music, paired with a pleasant psychedelic curiosity. The program is a kaleidoscopic tapestry of songs and interludes that Wollesen and Ferm have written and woven together through remarkably creative arrangements - joined by Anders “AC” Christensen on bass and Rune Kjeldsen on guitars. In some songs, they ride deep into the American west, reminding us of ist beauty and danger; while on others (especially the interludes), they investigate new facets of a sound the late great trumpeter and sonic explorer Jon Hassell referred to as 4th World Music or Primitive/Futuristic. The depths of creative understanding and adventurous emotional warmth they bring to musical projects are on full display here in a program that listeners from all backgrounds will find engaging and fulfilling.
