about

Light Industry is an acoustic improvising trio led by drummer Chris Cawthray.

The trio features two of Chris' favourite musicians: the infamously telepathic and in-demand Toronto double-bassist Jim Sexton and the most definitely Google-worthy Glen Hall on saxophone.

"I am writing music specifically for these guys to play WITH me. I like to think that when I compose this music, I am writing TO them, and I hope our performances bear the proof that they are getting the messages."

The compositions themselves are skeletal; short melodies underpinned by the bass. Interpretation and improvisation are essential to realizing these pieces; two musical skills these players deliver in droves.

The recording was done in one afternoon at Jean Martin's The Farm studio in Toronto. Martin captures the trio in exquisite depth of timbre and breadth of tonal colour.
