Liberty Ship – The Wide Open Suite & Noises At Sea

A bold double album: one acoustic CD, one electric. A step ahead for the adventurous quartet showcasing Liberty Ship´s remarkable skills in collective improvisation.
The group returns in spring 2015 with their second double album for Eclipse Music. After
the undeniable artistic statement of the 2013 debut album ”Approaching”, Liberty Ship
continues to seek uncharted waters of creative expression in contemporary jazz music.
