New Daniel Crommie Releases for 2021

 After a year of limited performance opportunities, with plenty of time to work on new compositions - there will be a plethora of new releases in the coming year, with the first album of 2021 "Noisemaker" scheduled for January 26th. "Noisemaker" sees a shift in sounds and textures with melodic and upbeat tunes featuring a lot of jazz/progressive flute grooves and densely constructed bubbling synths, layered flutes and buzzing electric dulcimers playfully entangled with disembodied voices taken from robo-calls. The first video for "Coconut Radio" is released December 4th and you can watch it here. Here is a review from Sea of Tranquility: "Crommie is a supreme talent and I urge everyone to check him out".



Another new album "A Prelude to the New Normal" will arrive this spring with more videos preceding that release as well.
