Amanda Gardier: Auteur

Alto saxist Amanda Gardier teams with Dave King/dr, Charlie Ballantine/g and Jesse Wittman/b to create original songs inspired by the films of Wes Anderson. Gardier has a warm tone, soft and floating on the forward pulse of “Let’s Hope It’s Got A Hapy Ending” and urgent during “I Wonder If IT Remembers”. She broods over King’s restless drums on “ The B Lue Of Winter” and is dramatic with Ballantine’s edgy guitar on “Order For Yourself” with the two picking and wandering about on “Electroshock Therapy”.The album feels like a soundtrack on its own terms as well . Cinematic sounds.
