Canadian-American 8-piece soul-jazz collective, Busty and the Bass, release footage of their entirely improvisational December 2020 livestream series. The vibrant videos from the Live From Breakglass series were recorded in Montréal, showcasing the ensemble’s roots in avant experimental jazz dating back to their conception in McGill University’s acclaimed jazz program. The livestream series was preceded by the release of the video for their 2020 album title track, “Eddie” - directed by June Barrie with 2nd animation by Vincent Hurtu

Eddie was released in summer 2020 via Arts & Crafts. The 12 tracks set nostalgic and vulnerable lyrical ruminations against a soundscape of simmering soul, spirited rock, hypnotic hip-hop, perennial psychedelic funk and artful R&B. Produced by Neal Pogue (Tyler The Creator, Anderson Paak) and executive produced by Earth, Wind & Fire’s Verdine White, it features legendary collaborators George Clinton, Macy Gray, Illa J and Jon Connor. The octet of Nick Ferraro [vocals, alto sax], Evan Crofton a.k.a. Alistair Blu [vocals, keys, synths], Scott Bevins [trumpet], Chris Vincent [trombone], Louis Stein [guitar], Milo Johnson [bass], Eric Haynes [keys, piano], and Julian Trivers [drums] recorded Eddie over three uninterrupted weeks Montreal.
