about

Ben, Sarah and Tony met at CalArts, where at some point, they started a weekly acoustic improvisation session together every Sunday. Like geniuses, they founded the name tree from being a trio... Puns branched without much pruning. Tree played in stairwells, foyers, by fellow trees—wherever there was space and a bit of resonance. In one particularly memorable session, they were playing outside in a covered entrance when a warm downpour erupted. Almost instantly and spontaneously, they were joined by dancers who happened to be walking by. An intense joyful creative exchange happened, and almost as soon as it started, in a shadow of a minute, it ended; and the dancers went on their way.

These recordings are from a session where our bodies entered a bit stressed, but the music (and the food we brought) reconnected us to an easeful playfulness that felt healing. There were a lot of fond memories from this session. Unfortunately, the bulk of the session was lost due to an uncooperative hard drive. Happily, these four tracks remain. We hope it brings you some ease, rain, or whatever you need at this moment.
