Bang on a Can All-Star clarinettist Ken Thomson and his ensemble Slow/Fast are about to release their second album Settle (NCM East records). And you can listen to the title track above. It’s four years on from their debut It Would Be Easier (Intuition). Reedist Thomson is joined on Settle, which has a kind of a revved-up John Hollenbeck quality in the writing to the title track, by guitarist Nir Felder who made a splash earlier in the year with his major label debut Golden Age, Chicago-based trumpeter Russ Johnson, and New York players bassist Adam Armstrong and drummer Fred Kennedy.
