Clear Path Ensemble returns for their first shows of 2025 celebrating the release of their third album Black Sand, with shows in Auckland at Double Whammy on June 6th and Wellington at the prestigious greenhouse Begonia House on June 12th as part of Loemis Festival.
The group, led by Cory Champion and featuring Louisa Williamson, Daniel Hayles, Johnny Lawrence, and Daniel Ryland* (*Begonia House show only), riffs on jazz-fusion in the mode of Herbie Hancock, Miles Davis and Azymuth while folding elements of minimalism, ambient, techno and broken beat into their borderless, highly exploratory soundworld.
After previous releases with Soundway and Cosmic Compositions, their new album Black Sand will be available digitally from May 15 and on vinyl privately pressed in a limited run, available early June.
Pre orders for the vinyl and tickets for both events are available at clearpathensemble.com
