Trumpeter Mark Isham returns with his first solo album in 27 years. Isham is a musician who has stretched musical boundaries for four decades, with Group 87, his early electronic album, Vapor Drawings and numerous film and TV scores, including A River Runs Through It and The Westies. He has a new album that takes us on a roundabout journey called At the Carousel Club.
Mark Isham: “This is not an ambient record, this is not an electronic music record, this is a storytelling record.”
It’s a wild ride where he has thrown every aspect of his career into his most kinetically-charged album ever. It’s called At The Carousel Club. We talk to Mark Isham on Echoes from PRX.

On a Slow Flow Echoes, new music by Bodhiheart and Chieli Minucci, two artists with roots in 1980s fusion. Chilei Minucci is the founder and guitarist for the long-lived band, Special EFX, one of the signature artists of the old GRP label. But he has a new album of solo, multi-tracked guitar that’s quite different. Bodhiheart consists of members of Krishna Das’s band, cellist Noah Hoffeld and pianist Wells Hanley. They’re joined by Mark Egan who came to renown as an original member of the Pat Metheny group.
