Ephemeral is the latest release from Aotearoa New Zealand-based artist Dave Wilson, featuring Wilson on tenor saxophone and bass clarinet in an improvising ensemble including trumpet, guitar, bass, drums, and string quartet.

With multi-layered grooves and intricate textures, Wilson creates musical worlds that foreground the wide-ranging musicalities of his collaborators and amplify the many dimensions of his playing.

For Ephemeral, Wilson brings together a group of musicians with deep experience in a wide variety of musical worlds, providing him and the other players with the widest range of aesthetic tools to sonically materialise the tight-knit bonds of Wellingtons music community. Callum Allardice, Ben Hunt, Hikurangi Schaverien-Kaa, Chris Beernink, Amy Brookman, Monique Lapins, Nicholas Hancox, and Bennie Sneyd-Utting all feature on the album, c
