David Caldwell-Mason -][- COLD SNAP –Mp3– [David Caldwell-Mason, 2012] –

David’s sophomore effort features Ari Hoenig on drums and Kellen Harrison on bass. A ambitious collection of original music, “Cold Snap” is punctuated with lucid dream-state reimaginings of Beyonce’s “Single Ladies,” and The Bird and the Bee’s “Meteor.”

This latest album is a collection of mostly original music that I’ve been cultivating in the trio setting for the last five years. I see it as a documentation of my development as a pianist and composer, as I continue to become more firmly rooted in my influences. The goal of this process as I see it is to internalize those influences to the point where they become part of one’s musical “identity.” Then it becomes possible to transcend regurgitation, and make music in a more honest, powerful way.
