about

Los Variants - the many elements of music and of life connecting outside the confines of strict genre definition. a homage to the much admired band, Los Lobos.

The Los Variants “bug” symbol created around fractals and symbolic building blocks of life, patterns from molecule to universe.

The CD name “jass/blues” jazz (or “jass”) New Orleans' brothels to Chicago night clubs to New York“cuttin’ parties”.

....working with the surprises and accidents, sometimes reshaping the song around them.

“jass/blues” collaboration and experimentation.

most of the musicians had never met.

Student musicians seasoned veterans, reggae jazz standard.

drum chair to BR for a tune.

Songs arranged as they were recorded, cues from behind the drum kit.

Sunny Side of the Street, vocals and drums in Scotland rest added in stages back in Canada.

Che Che Toronto jam sessions added to, edited and mixed into CD version.

mucho help during the writing, recording and mixing.

accidental music on this recording.
