Ask Not is a collection of improvising musicians led by Keith Kelly. Ari Chersky, Doug, Stuart, and Shaun Lowecki bring their broad music tastes and experiences together to create an expression of the moment: born of an instant, stretched and curdled, swiped across, and broken apart. Brett Reed contributes on vibes, adding another layer to the sound palette. The range of sounds on this record include: blues, jazz, indie rock, minimalism, ambient, and noise.
