PLEASE NOTE: This album is retired. I remastered it for the November 4, 2022 release on the earsay label. This newly-remastered album is an improvement over the album in this discography. Check it out at

Squid in Chains first release. A gift for all of us who feel this way about the current situation in Ukraine. We recorded this music between February 23rd and 24th, the night of the invasion. We had no idea how prescient this was…There is a mourning in this music, a weeping, crying, longing for peace.

As improvising musicians, we live and breathe and reflect the world around us. All music recorded in one take.
