OUI006 : Paul Dunmall - Faith Brackenbury - Tony Bianco - John Pope / Sentient Beings 

When four friends reunited after a few cover years to celebrate John Coltrane and come out after a heavy improvising session with a powerful album!

Faith about the album:

"On 23rd September 2022, anniversary of John Coltrane’s birthday, we got together in a hilltop studio in rural Shropshire to record. It was our first meeting as this quartet. Tony came up with the title ‘Sentient Beings’ because of the camaraderie around our meeting and he and Paul haven’t been able to meet up for a few years. The unreserved outpouring of spontaneous music was full of fire, sensitivity and passion."
