Location: An abandoned building outside of Mount Shasta, CA
Instrument: Tenor saxophone
Notes:
Yesterday Chris Icasiano and I made our way North from Los Angeles and ended up camping in the National Forest at the base of Mount Shasta, CA. This morning we woke early to continue driving back North to our final show in Portland, but before leaving the town I searched for an interesting spot to document. This improvisation took place in an abandoned building just outside of the town. The building contained several rooms, some of which were filled with junk from squatters and old Christmas Trees, and in other rooms hay was scattered on the floor as though itâs occasionally stored there. This piece explored the dead, lack of resonance within the largest of the rooms.
The image accompanying todayâs post was taken within the building after documentation.

Location: A rose garden adjacent to a sidewalk in Los Angeles, CA
Instrument: Tenor saxophone
Notes:
This improvisation was documented in a Los Angeles neighborhood within a very small rose garden, Iâd say 4 feet wide by 8 feet long. The garden was adjacent to a sidewalk on what looked to actually be city property, though it was clearly cared for by someone with actually personality.
Chris Icasiano and I are on tour with our band Bad Luck. Two days ago my computer and audio recorder were stollen while getting read to load in our gear at after a show in Oakland. I lost several improvisations, including a few documented while on tour. The next day I purchased a new audio recorder and this morning I set out to document as soon as possible.
