about

Earnest Earth (CUR007) is the second site-specific album from woodwind/sound artist Hunter Diamond (Chicago) and drummer/sound designer Justin Peake (NYC/New Orleans).
Captured on the Earnest Earth farm in Chicago's Garfield Park neighborhood, this recording is equal measures ambient soundscape, field recording, and free improvisation.


Entrancing durational minimalism quilted into realtime dialogues between artist and environment that animates the coexistence of urban and agricultural landscapes within a sprawling Chicago neighborhood.

---

This is the sixth release in the Metal and Wood project: 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.
