At the invitation of the Exeter based free jazz trio capri-batterie, Stewart Lee spent an hour in a Bristol studio last October improvising words to their spontaneous sounds.
These are the unfiltered results, collected as the ‘Bristol Fashion’ album – available here.
There is a review of the project within the misc. press section of this site, here.
“Capri-Batterie is a trio comprised of Kordian Tetkov on drums, Tim Sayer on trumpet and electronics and Matthew Lord on Bass and Saxophone. With an unrestricted approach to improvisation that embraces the philosophy of ‘freedom’, as an affront to oppression in all its modern-day manifestations. If you think you have heard improvised music, think again.Stewart Lee should need no introduction, as undoubtedly the most original stand-up comedian in more than 30 or so years. He is also a highly regarded writer, and director. Stewart has been involved in numerous interesting musical projects and maintains a strong association with the avant-garde and improvised scene. It’s not often that something can genuinely be described as “unique”. This can be though, there is nothing like it. Anywhere.”
