Where You Wish You Were

Description

Bill Laurance and Michael League unveil their first duo album! Michael League, Snarky Puppy founder, multi-instrumentalist, and Grammy winner, and Bill Laurance, crossover piano icon, transport us to an imaginary place full of beauty, peace, and energy. "Where you wish you were" is the title of their first duo album, set to be released on ACT on January 27th. And its protagonists surprise, almost as an antithesis to Snarky Puppy's stadium acts, with an intimate, atmospheric, and melody-driven dialogue. Michael League, a Spanish resident and North Africa enthusiast, paints colorful musical landscapes on oud, bass, and guitar. And Bill Laurance, best known for his dense walls of sound on keyboards and synthesizers, shifts his sound palette to the acoustic world of the piano. A musical escape, world jazz 2.0, and an invitation to a place we wish we were.
