[As a group, Canyon Collective] doesn’t write structured songs for their performances, instead improvising their material together on stage. They’ll talk amongst themselves about what style of piece they’ll focus on in their next performance, then they’ll perform it on the spot, riffing off of each other in the process.
Recently, the group had the opportunity to perform in a mineshaft for a private party. The performance was recorded, and upon listening back to the recording, they realized they had something special. Because of this, the group has decided to release this recording as their first live album.
For [bandleader and drummer Zach] Hedstrom, the improvisational style that the group embraces means that the musicians can embrace the present moment fully during their shows. He loves being able to take everyone’s ideas at face value and encouraging the performance to be a spontaneous musical collaboration.
Hedstrom loves being part of a band where every show gives a different energy through its spontaneity, and he hopes that everyone who comes to see a Canyon Collective show has a great time and feels encouraged to see them live again. For the group and the audience, every show is a different experience, and these musicians love that every show has a new energy.
