Today, September 30, Medeski Martin & Wood release Radiolarians I, the first installment of The Radiolarians Series. Radiolarians I will be released through Indirecto, Medeski Martin and Wood's own record label.
The Radiolarian Series - named after a type of single-celled organism with dazzlingly intricate exoskeletons - is designed to subvert the age-old music industry cycle of write/record/tour. The trio, consisting of keyboardist John Medeski, drummer Billy Martin, and bassist Chris Wood, will convene for brief writing retreats, perform only that new material on tour, record the material immediately after getting off the road, and release the music. The process will be repeated three times, resulting in three albums. Check out "Free Go Lily", the first single from Radiolarians I, via the link below.
