Meatshell 'Since Subito' out 26 March
Since Subito is the second album by experimental-folk-jazz duo, Meatshell, winners of the 2020 Maastricht Jazz Award. Featuring two of Australia’s most distinctive emerging artists, double bassist/vocalist Helen Svoboda and tenor saxophonist Andrew Saragossi, Meatshell share a curiosity for the subtle beauty of things. Since Subito cultivates unconventional sound worlds, transcending traditional song forms by emphasising the power of story-telling through sound. The duo’s quirky and abstract songwriting style illustrates the full emotional spectrum of the human condition: beautiful melodies and euphoric grooves are juxtaposed against moments of mystery, desperation and screaming chaos, as the duo contemplate climate change, mental illness and new birth.
