Patrick Shiroishi is always worth keeping an eye on, a sax playing serial collaborator with an adventurous spirit, although you’ll have to sift through some regularly appearing, harder to digest experimental works to get to the more melodic stuff, which is where my interests lie.
Ironically Greyhound Days is almost too smooth in places, with both Shiroishi and keyboard/electric bass playing Piotr Kurek both in serene mood as they flirt with borderline muzak in places, maintain a suave ambient jazz vibe and touching “simple tenderness” that should ease the minds of even the most stressed souls. It’s a really lovely, gentle listen, and we could all use some of that from time to time.
