The New Signal

The New Signal is what happens when musicians get together with their instruments, hangout, and hit record. No set lists or songs, just unscripted, free flowing conversations of musical ideas and sonic expression. It captures music made in the moment to make music OF the moment.

Available Episodes 10

The world has changed! A lot has changed since we recorded this music in February, which was the last time we got together in person to play. The conversation in this episode was recorded on March 20, a week after Chicago issued it's Shelter-at-home order.  We check in on how we are doing and just try to wrap our heads around the new reality.
