The Tunes:
Blue Bird (Jonah Pierre) - Charlie Parker (Bird) played the Blues and maintained a turbulent lifestyle.
Portraits of a Swan (Jarrett Carter) - Swans are a symbol of peace, spiritual awakening, and grace. In reality, they can be quite aggressive.
Yukon (Thomas Milovac) - Yukon is a portrait of the small coal village in Pennsylvania where Thomas’ dad, grandparents, and great grandparents lived.
Dormant (Jarrett Carter) - The multitude of one’s creations will remain dormant unless endlessly searched for.
They Say (Jonah Pierre) - Wayne Shorter said there is no such thing as a short story.
Slab City (Thomas Milovac) - A portrait of the anarchist community out in the California desert by the Salton Sea.
Titan’s Folly (Thomas Milovac) - Named after the Greek immortals who lost their war with the Olympian gods, the Titan submarine ended in catastrophe. This is a portrait of that debacle.
Tangle Talk (Jarrett Carter) - A significant way to endure pain is by utilizing willful coherence.
