The PorchBone project is an extension of The Porch Trio, which has been active as a free improvisation unit since 2016. PorchBone juxtaposes the abstract, improvised textures of the Trio with the velvety tones of a trombone section, inspired by the sound worlds of the Duke Ellington and Sun Ra big bands. This suite of ten pieces plus an Ellington classic premiered at the Driff Festival 2021 in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and was reprised in 2023.
