This is the second solo album by Sam Crowe, featuring a set of original compositions by the leader and a true genre-mash of styles, epic colors and moods with improvisation as it’s focus, boasting a line up of literally some of the most exciting and cutting edge young improvisers in the world. Recorded in two days at the famed Systems Two Studios in NYC, the album features:

Towards the Center of Everything is a continuation and development of the textures and epic themes heard on Crowe’s critically acclaimed first album Synaesthesia with an added New York sensibility to the performances. There are rock and ‘drum and bass’ influences, as well as an ever present folk feeling to some pieces, which weave a narrative through moody, modal harmony, and just wait till you hear the stellar performances by all on board.
