Bill Frisell's latest Nonesuch release, Disfarmer, is out now. The Christian Science Monitor calls the album "a tour de force of jazz creativity by Bill Frisell," with the guitarist creating "a profoundly eerie merger of old-timey mountain music and jazz."
Bill Frisell brought his Disfarmer Project—featuring the music from his latest Nonesuch release, Disfarmer, inspired by the photographs of the late American photographer Mike Disfarmer—to the Ellnora Guitar Festival at the University of Illinois, Urbana, this past Saturday, and is set to take the program to two stops in Montana later this month: the Emerson Cultural Center in Bozeman on the 29th and the University Theater in Missoula on the 30th. Bassist Viktor Krauss, lap-steel guitarist Greg Leisz, and violinist Eyvind Kang join for all of the events.
The Christian Science Monitor calls the Disfarmer album "a tour de force of jazz creativity by Bill Frisell." Reviewer Norman Weinstein says that for the album, "Frisell uses a variety of electric and acoustic guitars and electronic effects to create a profoundly eerie merger of old-timey mountain music and jazz."
