Wichita Wilkes

The collaborative project of two longtime friends, Sam Wilkes and Jacob Mann could be described as luminaries of the New Weird Los Angeles scene - crafting ambient jazz compositions that are adventurous in their experimentation. They met whilst they were both still USC music students - Wilkes specialising in bass and Mann studying jazz piano - and have since travelled the world together, developing their approach and process as they go. Indeed travel proves a key theme across the work through the tracks 'Pre-Board', 'Soft Landing', 'Around the Horn', and 'Jakarta', stretching the potential of their jazz-ambient soundworld across a variety of different terrains. Spanning thirteen tracks of gloriously unexpected twists and turns, this is an eye-opening view into the duo's ever-evolving practice.
