about

Spoken word poetry from Australian poet and novelist Ashley Capes, with jazz trio musical backing.

Recorded throughout different phases of the pandemic, in different places and at different times - it's been a steep climb to get to this point, but I'm so happy to finally release this!

More, I find myself deeply indebted to everyone who helped, from offering moral or studio support, and of course, the musicians who helped and inspired me.
