Another View

On her Northern Spy debut Another View, trombonist Kalia Vandever leads a quartet with Mary Halvorson (guitar), Kanoa Mendenhall (bass), and Kayvon Gordon (drums) through shifting cycles, grooves, and elegiac melodies. Drawing on dreamlike narratives and themes of grief, intimacy, and resilience, Vandever shapes a multilayered exploration of space, vulnerability, and imagination.
