Retreating to the Woods (with Quentin Coaxum!)

Retreating to the Woods (with Quentin Coaxum!)

Dave is joined this week by a special guest, Quentin Coaxum (https://quentincmusic.bandcamp.com). Quentin is a professional trumpeter, composer and teacher in the Chicago area, where he’s performed at the Chicago Jazz Festival and the Pitchfork Music Festival. Dave and Quentin go deep on two very different records they recommend for retreating to woods, including the lush “Sing to the Moon” by Laura Mvula that could accompany you on a walk in nature, and the lovely, dark and deep “No More Shall We Part” by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds that is better suited to a cabin in fifteen feet of pure white snow.
