“Its different. We try to keep it as open to development as possible. Sometimes someone will bring in an idea, other times well just improvise together, whether its in front of an audience or during rehearsal. And then we take notes on what seems to work, where we can go from there, talk about it, play some more. Once we have the seed of an idea, which could be a simple little melody or a mood or a beat, and then the other two kind of react to that in a session and then everyone starts collaborating. And people say, you should play this bass line, or you should play with less notes. We kind of direct each other. It's usually a real collective thing, a democracy, like a conversation.”
