Official Release Date – May 22, 2019

Recorded live at Kenny Dorham's Backyard venue in Austin Texas on March 27th 2019 for the Jazz OUTside series. This is improvised music that will appeal to fans of Jazz, Avant Garde, Beyond Jazz and Free Jazz, etc.

Recored on a portable recorder using the recorders built in microphones. - It was such a fun performance we thought we should release it for others to enjoy. Our previous announced release Narratives Vol. 2 will be out later in the year.

Dark Matter Horns was formed in 2017 when Oteri switched his focus from guitar to tenor sax and flute. They perform once a month at Kenny Dorham's Backyard in Austin Texas for the Jazz OUTside series, Austin's longest running Jazz series that focuses on the more adventurous side of Jazz.

Kenny Dorham's Backyard, named for the legendary jazz trumpeter and East Austinite, is a beautiful outdoor venue run by the Non-Profit group Diverse Arts Culture Works, located in the heart of Austin's East End.
