A trailblazing 21st Century jazz concept album, Resonants bristles with the sound of sympathetically resonating objects recorded within the studio setting. Lyrical melodies, catchy bass lines, driving rhythms and soaring guitars weave a daring, experimental tapestry of genre crossing music, seamlessly blending elements of jazz, rock, funk, ambient and folk.
