COLIN STETSON (London St John's-at-Bethnal Green, 18/11/14)


I suspect Colin Stetson may well be a sorcerer, for there can be no other explanation for the multitude of strange and otherworldly sounds he extracts from his saxo-mo-phone. Sometimes it sounds like two people playing at once. Sometimes he vocalises whilst simultaneously maintaining some heavy, rumbling drone on his baritone. Sometimes he simply sounds like the end of worlds.
