Releases March 4th, 2022

The Metal and Wood project is a series of live improvisations between woodwind artist Hunter Diamond and various drummers living in the United States. Captured in different locations in Chicago and New Orleans, these recordings document Diamond’s ongoing interest in the saxophone-drums duo pairing made historic by legendary collaborations between John Coltrane & Rashied Ali, Archie Shepp & Max Roach, Dewey Redman & Ed Blackwell, Charles Lloyd & Billy Higgins, Joe McPhee & Hamid Drake, and many others.

Captured in the Bywater neighborhood of New Orleans, this recording simultaneously animates the creative and aesthetic spirits of both Chicago and New Orleans. Traversing between avant-astral, swamp swing, and experimental ambient, the sounds represents the currents of creative music at both ends Mississippi river, reaching both backward and forward in time while commenting directly on the present.

Hunter Diamond is a multi-faceted musician living in Chicago exploring the boundaries of beauty between composed and improvised material. He leads many creative music ensembles, and frequently collaborates with AACM drummer Mike Reed.
Justin Peake is a multi-instrumentalist sound composer, performer, and technologist creating work fluidly across genre and media. He is a drummer, percussionist, and an electro-acoustic improviser. He also designs software & hardware, installations, video & projections, and immersive experiences.
