History Dog - Root Systems

History Dog is trumpeter Chris Williams, drummer Lesley Mok, bass guitarist Luke Stewart and vocalist Shara Lunon. History Dog is a quartet of highly lauded Brooklyn-based improvisers. They’re scholars of the local and global Id, experts at accessing it within any number of distinct musical worlds (jazz, punk, noise, classical, avant-garde), always shaping personal dialects which address this subterranean collective imagination. Like all great improvisers, they feel it as it’s taking shape. So while you may be arriving at History Dog’s debut album, Root Systems, to check out this cool coming-together of a Brooklyn underground super-group, you’re likely to leave in thrall to a slightly different sound of Now.
