Lucas Brode

"Vague sense of virtue"

From Vague sense of virtue and other dreams of mundane profundity

The music of Hudson Valley, New York guitarist and composer Brode draws from jazz harmony, experimental rock textures and African rhythms, having spent several years learning percussion from traditional Ghanian master drummer Yacub Addy. Brode often performs solo, leads his own trio and is an active performer and improvisor in the New York City and Hudson Valley experimental music scenes. Featuring drummer Kevin Shea, the recordings for Vague sense of virtue… were guided by Pauline Oliveros’s concept of deep listening, experiments with musique concrète, David Lynch’s dream logic and the melodic style of Paul Motian.
