Howe Gelb draws inspiration from above, utilizing the cloud formations of the southwest as his muse, to present another chapter in a storied career with Weathering Some Piano.

Recorded in the Barrio Viejo neighborhood of Tucson, Arizona (inside a framed section of an adobe home insulated with denim to flatten the reverb and suck up the nuance) Weathering is a collection of thirteen improvisational compositions held together by the cohesion of their creator’s signature style.

“Nature is in itself an improvisation. It can never be an accurately nor consistently planned thing,” shares Gelb. “It should also be noted an extreme climate resonates with emotional wherewithal. Thus, these captured pieces of pianic atmospheres are simple paintings of the horizon, a semi still life, the net result of allowance, and never intended to be drawn again. Resonance achieved via residence.”
