Hey everyone!
It's my pleasure to announce the official release of our new CD, *unbind.*,
this Friday at the Cornelia Street Cafe. The record is available at
the Downtown
Music Gallery <http://www.downtownmusicgallery.com> on Bowery and also
online through CDBaby.com <http://CDBaby.com/cd/suiteunraveling>.
Along with having a great time making our first record in the studio, we
were lucky enough to work with Vijay Iyer, Adam Benjamin, Adam Kinner, Mike
Maher, Kevin Patton, Jeff Morris, and Christian Pincock along the way.
The result is a collaborative effort far beyond anything we could have done
on our own, and we hope you'll enjoy the efforts everyone kicked in to make
the project happen.
Come help us celebrate! We'll be playing 2 sets from 9pm to midnight, and
Jeff Cook will be on hand to do the visual thing he does on our rooftop when
we party.

The long version:
It's been a long time since interesting things were happening in the
art scene of Manhattan. The once famed countercultural hotspots of
the Villages have faded into obscurity and memory, as rising rents
and corporate sprawl have pushed both the artists and the audiences
across the waters. Those in search of Bohemia are better off in
Bushwick, where loft parties have replaced dance clubs and rooftops
have become the new basement stages. It's not a bad trade, all
things considered, but sometimes we still miss Manhattan, with its
fabled history, and we dream of the days when we can return.
A few traces of the glory days remain, chief among them the Cornelia
Street Café. A Greenwich Village treasure from its debut in the the
late Seventies, Cornelia has long been a home for artists, with
programming that ranged from performance art to experimental music to
puppet theatre. Still going strong as a venue for jazz and poetry,
Cornelia is about to shake things up, when it welcomes Addtract and
the suite unraveling, digital projections and noisy saxophones in
tow, for one special night as Brooklyn comes back to Manhattan.
Building on the success of their party and perofrmance series SKr0nK,
the Addtract Consortium will bring Lily Maase's jazz-rock quintet the
suite unraveling to the Cornelia Street Café for a one night only
celebration of their new CD "unbind." Known for their blistering
live performances, the Cornelia Street appearance will give the band
a chance to get back to their jazz roots, while exposing both sides
of their audience – the hipsters and the jazz heads – to something
they haven't experienced yet.

recent praise for unbind:
"Lily's shifting compositional architecture reflects our tendency to warp,
recompose and manipulate memory, yet she manages to reveal its inviolable
emotional cargo. Unbind illuminates and celebrates the human heart."
-the Weekly Alibi
recent praise for theSuiteUnraveling:
"...As much about artistic vision as about a groove you can feel. At times
soft and plaintive, the music could change gears and grow into a powerful
wall of sound. Lily Maase has not stood still over the past year, and this
music, with this band was extremely emotionally as well as cerebrally
rewarding."
