The Pen Club - Data Retrieval (2019)

Data Retrieval is the debut release from The Pen Club, a band featuring Jack Stoneham (alto saxophone), Felix Bornholdt (piano) and Ashley Stoneham (drums). The music of Data Retrieval is the result of a shared improvisational language between the members of the band, developed through years of practicing and playing together. Long-form free improvisation is punctured sporadically by pre-composed, rhythmic loops in a location and order that is also improvised. The music of Data Retrieval is macro structure emerging from micro, stream of conscious improvisation.
