Slingshot Improv Trio CD Release Party
Schedule
Fri, 29 May, 2026 at 07:00 pm
UTC-07:00Location
Woodhouse Blending & Brewing | Santa Cruz, CA
Recorded live at a series of local concerts, Elasticity captures Slingshot’s evolving interplay as they move fluidly between structured compositions and open‑ended improvisation. The performances highlight the band’s instinct for stretching written material into unexpected shapes, letting spontaneous ideas collide with pre‑crafted themes. The result is a collection that feels both intentional and unpredictable, shaped by the energy of the room and the band’s willingness to follow the moment wherever it leads.
The album will be available on all major streaming platforms on May 29, 2026, with limited‑edition physical formats to follow.
About Slingshot Improv Trio
With a big map and no planned destination, this trio of seasoned improvisers from the jazz, funk, and jamband worlds use song and structure the way spacecraft use planets: not to land and stay, but to slingshot around and be propelled back out into the galaxy. During their mostly-improv shows, a familiar song could materialize at any time. Or not. All we can promise is that nobody knows what’s going to happen.
Slingshot Improv Trio is Matt Hartle (guitar, vocals), Pete Novembre (bass), Bret Bailey (drums)
