scree

Led by guitarist Ryan El-Solh, Brooklyn trio Scree combines ambient jazz, Lebanese folk music, and atmospheric psychedelia into music for walking lonely nights through a desert landscape, either American or Middle Eastern, at twilight, and preferably after ingesting magic mushrooms. Joined by bassist Carmen Q. Rothwell and drummer Jason Burger, El-Solh puts melody first on first full-length Jasmine On a Night in July – he rarely shows off his considerable six-string skills, simply letting his tunes speak for themselves.
