Jesper Lovdal mostly plays precise clarinet but also gruff bari, Webster-ish tenor and cool flute. Mark Solborg’s preparations for guitar grasp a wild array of sonic levels: smooth chorale, underripe feedback, feverish pecking at paperclips, detuned strums, a sound like electric ukulele wired to a camera shutter. And Anders Provis’ drums range far and wide from hard mallets, subtle brushes, cymbal outbursts, punchy toms. Tracks called “Tales from the Lawn” suggest, as does the music itself, a film score of micro-lens adventures among insects and spider webs. - All About Jazz, NY.
