Description/Reviews:
With the duo’s program incorporating funk, rock, avant-garde and abstract classical elements, allusions to jazz and fusion, and strong aspects of mood and atmosphere, Husband called upon an extraordinary roster of bassists to complete the project, casting them accordingly... While these key bass contributions substantially elevate the proceedings, they also further highlight what an exceedingly rare vein of collaborational gold Husband and Hana have struck. Together they have created a uniquely broad and stylized sonic canvas on Vaudeville 8:45 – one that elicits bold strokes and fresh colors from all involved. For Hana, it’s a deserved entrée to a larger audience. For Husband, it's an unquestionably exciting addition to an already impressive musical CV. More importantly, The Trackers represents exactly what he had been searching for – a new way indeed. One can hope that it’s just the beginning. (Mike Jacobs at bandcamp)

Description/Reviews: 
Backed by a cast of stellar musicians, Bon unleashes an amalgamation of compositions that embrace a wide spectrum of genres from acoustic ballads, blues, jazz/rock to heavy, almost metal! On this release, Bon decided to give a nod to his inspirations Jimi Hendrix (The Gypsy King), Jeff Beck (Lo Down) and John McLaughlin (Can’t Stand The Funk). “Traces Of Chaos” is a culmination of years of work and writing.
