Description

John Lurie is a man of many talents: musician, actor, painter, and TV personality. With the soundtrack to his acclaimed HBO series *Painting with John*, he takes the listener into his unique, meditative, and often humorous world. The music, which acts as a violent underground undercurrent in the series, takes center stage here. His distinctive blend of banjo, guitar, and saxophone creates an atmosphere that is both soothing and intriguing, a perfect accompaniment for creative moments on a quiet evening.

The music on this album moves at the intersection of soundtrack, minimalist jazz, and ambient.
