Flesh and Bones is the latest release from drummer, composer, and poet William Hooker. The album marks his third full length effort for Org Music, following “Big Moon” (2021) and “Symphonie of Flowers” (2019). Hooker has also referred to the new work as his “Black Lives Suite”, a multi-disciplinary event which uses music and poetry to address the social issues of the times. Recorded at NYU Steinhart Studios, the recording features fellow New York based players Ras Moshe, Charles Burnham, On Davis, Hilliard Greene, and Luke Stewart. After more than 70 releases as a leader and nearly five decades into his career, William Hooker has solidified his reputation as one of the most unique composers and drummers of his generation, and he continues to explore new territory. Flesh and Bones was mastered by Dave Gardner, and features liner notes from Hooker himself. The album will be available everywhere November 3rd.

Oh! The Grandeur is the second album from Andrew Bird’s Bowl of Fire, released in 1999 on the heels of their debut the year prior. Recorded in New Orleans, the record expands on the groups’ unique blend of freewheeling folk and swing. This will be the first ever vinyl pressing of the album, more than twenty years after its initial release. It comes as a double LP, housed in a gatefold jacket, and features an etching on the fourth side. The release is available everywhere on October 13th.
