The 2024 JBRI album is an exploration of space rock meets art rock meets jazz rock. Largely instrumental with some vocalisations and ambiences, the album showcases the immense talents and experience of internationally acclaimed musicians, bassist Jon Bastable and guitarist Robert Illesh – in composition, performance and production.
There are 10 new original tracks, including a mini-suite trilogy delving into the dark night of the soul. The mood of the album is best described as ‘weird’.
Although the songs are offered in the best possible humour, the subject material is not afraid to delve into the darker side of life and be left unresolved, much like some of the weird musicality throughout.
