about
Olive’s Big Mess (comp. Douglas) – Recorded at the Keystone session, January 20, 2005. DJ Olive (vinyl and laptop), Jamie Saft (wurlitzer and effects), Gene Lake (drums), Brad Jones (ampeg baby bass), Marcus Strickland (soprano sax), Dave Douglas (trumpet). Part of the score for Fatty’s Tintype Tangle (1916). This is our reading of the piece, and a pretty informal set of variations and stretching out. Fun. All Olive’s fault.

Wake An Echo
by Matt Ulery's Loomsupported by 610 fans who also own “Olive's Big Mess (outtake)”
This is a album I've gone back to several times. Matt lets his group play, and play they do. All of these pieces fell like full-group efforts, not written by a bassist to feature bass. Some songs feel driven, some searching, some making statements. Outstanding.

I love the fresh sounds of this ensemble. Catchy but quirky, challenging but accessible. I heard reminiscences of Frisell and Zorn, a touch of Bley... and "Everywhere from There to There" sounded almost immediately like a lost Joe Jackson track, cleverly remixed. Kudos on a thoroughly engaging and entertaining listen! Would love to hear more from this collective!
